jQuery UI Selectmenu: Styling a Custom HTML Select Element

This jQuery UI widget provides an accessible, styleable, and configurable replacement for select elements, allowing you to customize their behavior and appearance for a richer user experience. The plugin uses progressive enhancement to pull the content and state information from the select before replacing it in the page. After replacing the select element, the selectmenu continues to act as a proxy to the select that it replaced (even though it is hidden from the user), so when the form is submitted, the select value is still there to pass data to the server.
