Can I Style Parts of Text Within SELECT OPTION Elements?

Styling Portions of OPTION Text: A Browser Limitation

Problem:

You have a SELECT list with multiple OPTION elements and wish to style a specific portion of the text within each option.

Attempt:

<select name="color"><br><option value="0">red <span><option value="1">blue <span style="font-weight: bold;">SLOWER</span></option><br><option value="2">green <span></select><br>

However, this approach fails due to browser restrictions against using SPAN elements within OPTION elements.

Solution:

Unfortunately, there is no workaround for this issue. OPTION elements' styling is controlled by the browser and does not allow for partial text modification. It is generally not considered good design to style only fragments of OPTION text anyway.
