This seems like a trivial problem, but I can\'t figure it out.
On Bootstraps own website they have the Select example.
In addition to border-radius: 0
, add -webkit-appearance: none;
.
the class is called:
.form-control { border-radius: 0; }
be sure to insert the override after including bootstraps css.
If you ONLY want to remove the radius on select form-controls use
select.form-control { ... }
instead
EDIT: works for me on chrome, firefox, opera, and safari, IE9+ (all running on linux/safari & IE on playonlinux)
Here is a version that works in all modern browsers. The key is using appearance:none
which removes the default formatting. Since all of the formatting is gone, you have to add back in the arrow that visually differentiates the select from the input. Note: appearance is not supported in IE.
Working example: https://jsfiddle.net/gs2q1c7p/
select:not([multiple]) {
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
background-position: right 50%;
background-repeat: no-repeat;

Based on Arno Tenkink's suggestion in the comments, here is an example using a svg instead of a png for the arrow icon.
select:not([multiple]) {
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
background-position: right 50%;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-image: url('data:image/svg+xml;utf8,<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="14" height="12" version="1"><path d="M4 8L0 4h8z"/></svg>');
padding: .5em;
padding-right: 1.5em
}
#mySelect {
border-radius: 0
}
<select id="mySelect">
<option>Option 1</option>
<option>Option 2</option>
</select>
I had the same issue and while user1732055's answer fixes the border, it removes the dropdown arrows. I solved this by removing the border from the select
element and creating a wrapper span
which has a border.
html:
<span class="select-wrapper">
<select class="form-control no-radius">
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
</select>
</span>
css:
select.no-radius{
border:none;
}
.select-wrapper{
border: 1px solid black;
border-radius: 0px;
}

Using the SVG from @ArnoTenkink as an data url combined with the accepted answer, this gives us the perfect solution for retina displays.
select.form-control:not([multiple]) {
border-radius: 0;
appearance: none;
background-position: right 50%;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-image: url(data:image/svg+xml,%3C%3Fxml%20version%3D%221.0%22%20encoding%3D%22utf-8%22%3F%3E%20%3C%21DOCTYPE%20svg%20PUBLIC%20%22-//W3C//DTD%20SVG%201.1//EN%22%20%22http%3A//www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd%22%3E%20%3Csvg%20version%3D%221.1%22%20id%3D%22Layer_1%22%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A//www.w3.org/2000/svg%22%20xmlns%3Axlink%3D%22http%3A//www.w3.org/1999/xlink%22%20x%3D%220px%22%20y%3D%220px%22%20width%3D%2214px%22%20height%3D%2212px%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%2014%2012%22%20enable-background%3D%22new%200%200%2014%2012%22%20xml%3Aspace%3D%22preserve%22%3E%20%3Cpolygon%20points%3D%223.862%2C7.931%200%2C4.069%207.725%2C4.069%20%22/%3E%3C/svg%3E);

You can use -webkit-border-radius: 0;
. Like this:-
-webkit-border-radius: 0;
border: 0;
outline: 1px solid grey;
outline-offset: -1px;
This will give square corners as well as dropdown arrows. Using -webkit-appearance: none;
is not recommended as it will turn off all the styling done by Chrome.
