Steps: - Load http://foxplay.com/mx/shows/documentales/ Result: There's a visual oddity on the "Géneros" drop down selector Expected result: There's no visual oddity on the "Géneros" drop down selector Configuration: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:32.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/32.0 ID:20140508030203 CSet: 2a03b34c8953
Apparently all styled dropdowns show the issue.
This is probably a regression between 28 and 29. I can reproduce it on Mac. Investigating...

I meant 29 -> 30. And looks like the layout on 30+ is correct.

The dropdown arrow is broken because Bug 963970 fixed a longstanding implementation bug of Firefox. Looks odd but apparently it's intended. I have mentioned this in the site compat doc: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/30/Site_Compatibility#CSS
I think it's not easy to hide the native arrow with a simple CSS. They might create a custom <select> element to completely style it. It's a read-only combobox if you'd like to utilize WAI-ARIA. http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/aria-practices/#combobox
I have the feeling they changed the design of the Web site. I do not see any weird double arrows.
