- Option-Color-Bug: Description: The background-color of the first option is not shown in the <select>-list

Phil, please read the bug reporting guidelines at http://www.mozilla.org/quality/bug-writing-guidelines.html, and try to use the Bugzilla Helper (http://www.mozilla.org/quality/help/bug-form.html) to report bugs -- it prompts your for all the necessary information. At the very least, a clear description of the problem and a build ID on which you're seeing the problem are needed. A testcase or demonstration would be very helpful.

Mozilla 0.9.2 (Build ID: 2001062815) on WinNT4: Description: The color of the first option is not shown in the list - the other work: In the example below the background-color of "Chromium" is not displayed - background-colors from "Cobalt" (second entry) to "Titanium" (last entry) do work. <select> <option value="Chromium" style="background:#9CB2A5; color:black">Chromium</option> <option value="Cobalt" style="background:#9C9EBD; color:black">Cobalt</option> <option value="Iridium" style="background:#AD929C; color:black">Iridium</option> <option value="Titanium" style="background:#BDBAB5; color:black">Titanium</option> </select> Please see http://www.goli.at/phil/mozilla/bugs.html - it's all there

Linux build 2001-07-06-08 -- all colors show fine (except the selected option is blue, of course).

Win98: all of the colors display when I drop down the select list, but the background of the select is always white when the menu isn't visible and when the select doesn't have focus. The first item doesn't seem special.

Philipp, could you attach a screenshot of the expected rendering? Or at least describe it in more detail?

added a screenshot at the end of the page: http://www.goli.at/phil/mozilla/bugs.html

I see the same behavior on Linux as Jesse does on win98 -- the closed select is always white. The colors show fine in the dropdown menu. Over to HTML form controls.... I'm not convinced this is a bug.
