Select Tag, How to style select elements Options

[cweb]

Hello.
How do you CSS style select elements? This is all new to me so I apologize if I am not using the correct terminology.

Display select elements using absolute positioning w/the top coordinate set to 0pixels & the left coordinate set to 250 pixels. set the font size to 12 pixels.
This is what I have:

CODE

select
          {
        position:absolute;
            top:0px;
                left:250px;
                font-size:12px;
          }
