Re: [jQuery] open drodown

I put that div on select to reduce the width not the size , right now I use
this jquery which works

$(document).ready(function(){
$('#program').wrap("<div class='wrapper'></div>");
$('.wrapper').after("<div class='selectArrow'/>");
$('.wrapper').find('select').mousedown(function(){

$(this).parent().next().addClass('selectArrow-mousedown').removeClass('selectArrow-mouseover');
}).
mouseup(function(){

$(this).parent().next().removeClass('selectArrow-mousedown').addClass('selectArrow-mouseover');
}).
hover(function(){
$(this).parent().next().addClass('selectArrow-mouseover');
}, function(){

$(this).parent().next().removeClass('selectArrow-mouseover');
});

$('.selectArrow').click(function(){
$(this).prev().find('select').focus();
});

$('.selectArrow').mousedown(function(){

$(this).addClass('selectArrow-mousedown').removeClass('selectArrow-mouseover');
}).
mouseup(function(){

$(this).removeClass('selectArrow-mousedown').addClass('selectArrow-mouseover');
}).
hover(function(){
$(this).addClass('selectArrow-mouseover');
}, function(){
$(this).removeClass('selectArrow-mouseover');
});
});

.wrapper{
display: inline;
float: left;
width: 180px;
overflow: hidden;
}
.selectArrow{
display: inline;
float: left;
width: 17px;
height: 22px;
border:1px solid #7f9db9;
border-left: none;
background: url('images/selectArrow.png') no-repeat 1px 1px;
}
.selectArrow-mousedown{background:
url('images/selectArrow-mousedown.png') no-repeat 1px 1px;}
.selectArrow-mouseover{background:
url('images/selectArrow-mouseover.png') no-repeat 1px 1px;}

this function puts the div
but if the user clicks on the selectArrow image drop down does not open ,
user has to click on the dropdown , please tell me if I can oprn the
dropdown when user clicks on the select-arrow image ?
