Is it just me or do most browsers have more usable select boxes already. Especially that conventions have already been set. E.g, open one of the select boxes, choose something; realise you made a mistake and click the open thing again...WTF there's only the option you've already selected. *10 seconds later* oh... it's not a select box but an overly complicated auto-completion box. This is not a combo or select box, this is auto completion. Sexy? In IE6 maybe, try looking at it on a mac in FF3 or Safari, they stand out like sore thumbs, the browser has access to native styled controls... and uses them. Making custom selects is a nice experiment, but to use them has to be done very carefully. Really? Is it just me or do most browsers have more usable select boxes already.
