dropdownlist with a leading character in a different color

TJS

I am populating a dropdownlist control from a query. Each line of content
in the dropdownlist may get modified with a leading text character as a flag
before being added to the list.

how can I modify a leading character to be in a different color or perhaps
add a small leading image to indicate the flag ?

The dropdownlist is not customizable in this way. You may change the
dropdownlist to a select tag and then you can make the necessary
customization.
