Customizing Select Element Highlight Color Q: How can I modify the highlight color that appears on the element when the mouse hovers over it within a dropdown? A: The provided information regarding highlighting elements within is unclear. However, it seems that you intend to alter the background color of elements.

Alternatively, highlighting the entire element on mouseover can be achieved using the following CSS: select:hover { background-color: red; }Copy after login However, the behavior of this workaround varies across browsers.
