<div>
I have gotten it to work once but I had to basically create my own dropdownlist control (inherited from the base control) and add my own attributes.<br />
<br />
I no longer have that code unfortunately.<br />
<br />
The easiest way would be to fake a drop down using javascript and divs.<br />
<br />
Hope someone else knows a better way because I have been tempted to rewrite that control because I need the functionality but have been avoiding the hassle :)

DropDownList control - is it possible for each item in dropdown list to show a color (BackgroundColor) instead of text?
