Let's code
In index.html inside body tag write this
<div class="container"> <button class="select" name="select" value="options">options</button> <div class="options"> <p class="item active">option 1</p> <p class="item">option 2</p> <p class="item">option 3</p> <p class="item">option 4</p> </div></div>
And add some CSS
*{ margin: 0; padding: 0; box-sizing: border-box;}*:focus{ outline: none;}body{ width: 100%; height: 100vh; display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; background: #ff6767; font-family: 'roboto', sans-serif;}.container{ position: relative;}.select{ position: relative; width: 200px; height: 40px; border-radius: 10px; border: none; text-transform: capitalize; color: #fff; background: #292929; text-align: left; padding: 0 15px; font-size: 16px; cursor: pointer;}.select::after{ content: ''; position: absolute; right: 20px; top: 50%; transform: translateY(-50%) rotate(45deg); width: 6px; height: 6px; border-right: 2px solid #fff; border-bottom: 2px solid #fff;}.select:hover{ background: #222222;}.select.active{ background: #222222; border-bottom-left-radius: 0; border-bottom-right-radius: 0;}.options{ position: absolute; top: 40px; left: 0; width: 100%; height: fit-content; background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); border-bottom-left-radius: 10px; border-bottom-right-radius: 10px; overflow: hidden; display: none;}.options.active{ display: block;}.options .item{ color: #fff; text-transform: capitalize; width: 100%; height: 30px; padding: 0 15px; line-height: 30px; cursor: pointer;}.options .item.active{ background: #292929;}
we also need to write JS. So let's write some
const select = document.querySelector('.select');const optionBox = document.querySelector('.options');const options = [...document.querySelectorAll('.options .item')];let activeOption = 0; // default should be 0window.onclick = (e) => { if(!e.target.className.includes('select')){ select.classList.remove('active'); optionBox.classList.remove('active'); } else{ select.classList.toggle('active'); optionBox.classList.toggle('active'); }}options.forEach((item, i) => { item.onmousemove = () => { hoverOptions(i); }})const hoverOptions = (i) => { options[activeOption].classList.remove('active'); options[i].classList.add('active'); activeOption = i; setValue();}window.onkeydown = (e) => { if(select.className.includes('active')){ e.preventDefault(); if(e.key === 'ArrowDown' && activeOption < options.length - 1){ hoverOptions(activeOption + 1); } else if(e.key === 'ArrowUp' && activeOption > 0){ hoverOptions(activeOption - 1); } else if(e.key === 'Enter'){ select.classList.remove('active'); optionBox.classList.remove('active'); } }}const setValue = () => { select.innerHTML = select.value = options[activeOption].innerHTML;}setValue();
