title: CSS / HTML - Styling select boxes properly
body: <p>I'm pretty new doing my own CSS changes and I am a little stuck on the <code>select</code> element.
  So far, I have it where I want using the following CSS:</p>
  
  <pre><code>select {
      float: left;
      border: 0 none;
      height: 46px;
      width: 240px;
      background-color: #191919;
      font-size: 14px;
      color: white;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The only problem, is now I'm seeing some sort of gradient and I can't seem to find anything in the CSS to get rid of it.</p>
  
  <p>Below is what I'm seeing</p>
