changing the color of a HTML form selection

I want to change the color of a selection object in an HTML form (ie a <SELECT> object). I have used CSS to get all my textfields looking nice, but I can't see how to change the border, or the little arrow on the selection box.
I think that it should be similar to changing the scrollbar in IE.

To my knowlege, it's not possible to change anything but the color in the OPTION objects - only the color of the boxes, but not the arrows.

I think that they need to add this capability to the CSS specification - it throws the whole design of my webpage having big ugly boxes all over the place!

Are you speaking of the combo boxes? If so I believe those, and radio buttons and checkboxes can be modified to images via javascript if I am not mistaken.
I can't remember the site I read about it at... it started with a D, I will look for it.
