      There is a problem in 33.0.1990.58 - background color of select elements is always white and can't be changed.

        Which elements are you talking about? Can you link to a screenshot illustrating the issue?

          Opera 33 on Windows 7 works fine. This bug only exists on Windows 8.1 and Windows 10: <select> elements do not respect their CSS "background-color".

            Same problem here on Win 8.1 and Win 10.

            Background color is ignored by Opera on HTML <option> selected Attribute:

              I made a quick css workaround for opera and chrome by removing the background color only for these two browsers, you need to set the background to white, because on Win 7 and Opera 33 the background color still works:

              @supports (-webkit-appearance:none) and (motion-path:path('M0,0')) {
                  select {
                  color: #000000;
                  background: #FFFFFF;
                  }
              

              }

                I'm talking about:
                <SELECT></SELECT>

                Background of this element should be like this:

                    In Opera background-color of SELECT is always white, while in other browsers it can be colored.

                      Opera is the only browser where background-color of SELECT cannot be coloured.

                          Yes, last time it was reported at january 22, 2016. Bug report with the ID: DNA-48653. No answer.

                          This bug is OS dependent - I have tried Windows XP, Opera 35.0.2066.82 - works fine.

                          Going to try Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10 (32-bit).

                                It is unbelievable that this critical bug persists for more than 6 months!

                                The main function of web browser is to display pages correctly and the Opera can't perform it in Windows 10.

                                Even Vivaldi shows dropdown boxes coloured.

                                  I have the same problem. CSS "background-color" property does not work for "Select" HTML elements.

                                  Please, solve it!

                                  Thanks.

                                    I am also having the same problem. I am using Opera 36.0.2130.65 on Windows 10 (64 bit). I have tried using

                                    background-color: #000000;
                                    background-color : rgb(0, 0, 0);
                                    background-color : rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
                                    

                                    and none of them work. Ironically, setting the text color inside the select box works.
