Arrow down/up to select in a list?

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

Instead of the <select> popup menu with practically no way to style…

… I did an experiment of replacing this with details/summary. But then I lose the ability to navigate using arrows.

Is there a way to get the arrows to work within the details?

Thank you. And without using JQuery?

Unfortunately these are the only ones I know about. They are very powerful and highly customisable.

An alternative might be coding the reaction to the arrow keys yourself.

Success!
