Introducing a new way of styling forms
Ever wondered how you could style form elements like checkboxes, radiobuttons and select-fields in a way you like? You tried hard using the most ass-kicking XHTML/CSS tricks, but didn’t succeed without stuffing unnesscesary tags into your sleek sourcecode? Not to speak of the browsers and their “special abilities” in evaluating CSS.
Now this is for you! CFE finally found their way to Github and allow you to style your forms individually!

What is CFE?
A short explanation
Custom Form Elements unites all efforts in the web to enhance web-based XHTML forms in terms of style, usability and accessibility by using Javascript and/or CSS. Custom Form Elements work cross-browser, currently supporting most A-grade browsers.
The intention behind CFE is to create the one Javascript form replacement script, which may be used with mootools as well as jQuery, Prototype, YUI, Dojo, qooxdoo and so on…
It’s completely unobstrusive and allows you to style your forms via CSS – so the presentation is still decoupled from the model and the logic. Yet, it still maintains or even enhances the usability of these form elements.
