Bootstrap Select - How to use Bootstrap-Select for Dropdown
Bootstrap Select
- Customize the native <select>s with custom CSS that changes the element’s initial appearance.
- Custom <select> menus need only a custom class, .form-select to trigger the custom styles. Custom styles are limited to the <select>’s initial appearance and cannot modify the <option>s due to browser limitations.
