HTML Select tags, putting Drop Down Arrow on LHS?

Hi Experts,

I would like to set a style attribute or something for a HTML <Select> tag so that the arrow appears on the LHS instead of the RHS (which is currently covered by a limited width Div)

Appreciate your thoughts...

Try adding  dir="rtl" to your select, but your options will be right aligned.
<select dir="rtl"><option>Hello</option><option>World</option></select>
