title: Set font color for select option placeholder
body: <p>Looking for a way to set the font color of a dropdown list placeholder. The following worked when the select id was required:</p>
  
  <pre><code>select:required:invalid {
      color: #9e9e9e;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, I do not want these dropdown lists to be required for input. Once I remove the required tag, the placeholder font changes back to black. </p>
  
  <p>The following is my dropdown list:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;select id="searchresults4" name="primarysport"&gt;
      &lt;option value=""&gt;Choose Primary Sport...&lt;/option&gt;
      &lt;option&gt;Football&lt;/option&gt;
      &lt;option&gt;Basketball&lt;/option&gt;
      &lt;option&gt;Baseball&lt;/option&gt;
      &lt;option&gt;Softball&lt;/option&gt;
      &lt;option&gt;Soccer&lt;/option&gt;
      &lt;option&gt;Golf&lt;/option&gt;
  &lt;/select&gt;
  </code></pre>
