Standalone

<div class="select" id="Foo">
  <select name="SomeSelect">
    <option value="">Please select</option>
    <option value="1">Option 1</option>
    <option value="2">Option 2</option>
    <option value="3">Option 3</option>
  </select>
</div>

<script src="blue-select.js"></script>
<script>
var el = document.querySelector('#foo')

new BlueSelect(el)
</script>

Styling

The module implements BEM class naming for the fake value and arrow elements it creates. The 'block' class name is taken from the first class present on the container element on which you instantiated the class. So in the above case the classes would be: .select, .select__value and .select__arrow

Some CSS will be required to hide the select and style the arrows and fake value, none is included in the script. This implementation is left to you.

When the select is focused the container will have an is-focused state class

This is the base level of styling required:

.custom-select {
  position: relative;
}
.custom-select select {
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  position: absolute;
  left: 0;
  top: 0;
  opacity: 0;
  font-size: inherit;
  z-index: 1;
}
