CSS select box option control

Hello I got a problem on select box option.(from my client)

I click select box and then I can see options.

But these options look broken on IE8 (zoom in 105%)

after I open select box,

option’s words look like A ----> / \

Is there way to solve this problem without change font size??

It’s not quite clear what the situation is here. What do you mean by zoom in this context? The “option’s words” thing is not clear. Maybe provide a screen shot?

Apart from that, IE8 is dead. I would charge the client more to worry about old, dead, defective browsers like that.

I am sorry
I was wrong, the client browser was IE9.
And I cant take a screen shot now because of my company policy.

after open select box

(other IE version , No problem)


| A |


| A |


(IE 9)


| / \ |


| / \ |


Maybe it is becuase of padding??

The examples you’re posting are very confusing (to me at least).

Perhaps create a code demo for CodePen that demonstrates the issue you’re having.
