On the web-page given the drop doen list labeled "Pais" does, if dropped, only
show one entry, the highlighted one. All non highlighted entries appear blank.
It seems to work funktionally so. If an entry is selected, it is also not
rendered in the editor field of the drop down box.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Got to http://www.amnistiaporsafiya.org/
2. Drop down the list fiels labeled "pais"
3. step through the list
4. select one and see it is not rendered in the box

Actual Results:  
The dropped list renders only the currently selected entry (white on blue
background as expected). All other entries are invisible, but seem to be there.
It does olso not render the selected entry in the editor box.

Expected Results:  
A list black on white with entries and the currently selected one white on blue.
Also the selected entry should apear in the editor box, after the drop doen list
is closed.

Minimum HTML to reproduce (testcase):
<select style="color: #ffffff;">
<option value="">default</option>
<option value="1">1</option>
</select>

The style color is being applied to the select form field.
The listed URL assigns a style class to the "select" box which has 
"color: #ffffff;", not sure this is a browser bug?

Actual results: white text, white background.

Mozilla has yet to accept a bug of "white text on white background".  This is 
probably at most an evangelism bug.

I think CL is right. This web-site is formatted wrongly. It even defines the
same CSS style twice and the Input field appears to have wrongfully a class
attribute.

  <select name="pai" class="form" > 

--> I'll close this one. Sorry for not looking at the code more closely first.
