Nice site. I'm not sure the dropdown looks great on OS X though. On OS X, the selected option is prepended with √, so it looks like √ Feature √ Feature

Nice site. I'm not sure the dropdown looks great on OS X though. On OS X, the selected option is prepended with √, so it looks like
√ Feature
√ Feature
√ No Feature
Selecting the second element then shows
Feature
√ √ Feature
√ No Feature
It ends up looking somewhat odd.
- mg 5y agoOh wow, you are right. The same happens on the latest iPadOS. Must have changed since I tested it last time. I guess that's why nobody is using native elements. They can break any time the browsers change their appearance. Guess I will have to create a custom element that "simulates" a plain dropdown.

- voussoir 5y agoAnother option might be to rephrase them as "Assembled or Disassembled", "Assembled", "Disassembled". At the moment you're using the checkmark to disambiguate between not-chosen and chosen, but rewording the not-chosen to clarify that it includes both could achieve the same goal.
