The border-color style works in Firefox but not IE.

I would consinder enclosing that dropdownlist block within a div block and setting the border property like so:

XML

<div style="border:1px solid red;width:250px">
    <asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1" runat="server" Width="100%">
    </asp:DropDownList>
    </div>

Hmmm...yes....there is no property to set the border color other that place it in a div...even that case also the "arrow" present for selection will remain in the blue color...
