Is there a way to style dropdown forms in Webflow? I have tried adding a class and styling as normal, but have only had minimal results.

Yes, you can style dropdown forms in Webflow. By default, dropdown forms in Webflow are the native styles provided by the user's operating system or browser. However, you can easily customize their appearance using Webflow's built-in styling options.

To style a dropdown form, follow these steps:

1. Select the dropdown element in the Webflow Designer.
2. In the Style panel, you can modify properties like font, font size, and color to control the appearance of the selected option.
3. To change the appearance of the dropdown when it's closed or hovered, you can use the state dropdown in the Style panel to switch between normal, hover, and pressed states. This allows you to apply different styles to each state.
4. To style the dropdown arrow, you can use a combination of pseudo-classes and CSS. For example, you can target the "before" or "after" pseudo-element of the dropdown class and use CSS properties like content and border to create a custom arrow.

If you're looking for more advanced styling options, you can also use custom code in Webflow. With custom code, you have full control over the styling of the dropdown form.

Here's an example of custom code that can be used to style a dropdown form:

```css
/* Target the dropdown element */
.dropdown {
/* Add background color */
background-color: #f2f2f2;
/* Add border */
border: 1px solid #ddd;
/* Add padding */
padding: 10px;
/* Customize font and font size */
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;
}

/* Target the dropdown options */
.dropdown option {
/* Add background color */
background-color: #ffffff;
/* Customize font and font size */
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;
}

/* Target the dropdown arrow */
.dropdown::after {
/* Add custom arrow image */
content: url('path/to/arrow-image.png');
/* Position the arrow */
position: absolute;
right: 10px;
top: 50%;
transform: translateY(-50%);
}

/* Style the dropdown on hover */
.dropdown:hover {
/* Add hover styles */
background-color: #eaeaea;
/* Add border on hover */
border: 1px solid #bbb;
}
```

Remember to replace `path/to/arrow-image.png` with the actual path to your custom arrow image.

By applying these styles, you can customize the appearance of dropdown forms in Webflow to match your design and branding.
