Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

Build ID: 20111225031006

Steps to reproduce:

resource://gre-resources/forms.css
*|*::-moz-dropdown-list {
  border-color: black !important;
  border-style: outset !important;
  border-width: 1px 1px 1px 2px !important;
}
is not platform default.

platform default would be 1px solid #646464 (windows 7 default dropdown box).
Current URL dropdown box is #696969.

This needs UX decision.

What are you refering to? the border color or the background color?

In other words, should we dup this with bug 674443?

border.
i was thinking of hardcoding the values.
dupe of 674443 but proposed solution is different.
674443 seems stale.
should be trivial to fix and and leaving open hurts the look and feel of firefox.

this is an extreme eyesore, especially now that there is Australis.

This is fixed with Electrolysis, it uses native popup menus.
