elSelect is a great tool that allows you to visually change look and feel of usual select, keeping its functionality.
Click on screenshot to see it in action. Example will appear in a new window because it uses MooTools library which conflicts with the Prototype library used at this site. And “mootools is not trying to be conflict free” ( more info – http://forum.mootools.net/viewtopic.php?id=1964#post-9356 )

Why i did it? Well, you all know that select element and IE have problems.
They are :
- SELECT ignore z-index and will display over any other position element (fixed in IE7) ,
- disabled property for OPTION tag do not work in IE
- you cant change look of standard SELECT using CSS
This class successfully solve all problems, but elSelect is still in development……
