Set style to <OPTION> in <SELECT>?

[correro]

In a drop-down list created with <select><option>, is it possible to set style to the options? Like, say, different background color, or font color?

Hi mate,

The following will change the background colours:

<style>
option.red { 
        background: #FC6165; 
        } 
option.green { 
        background: lightgreen; 
        } 
</style>

                    <select name="test">
					<option>Normal
					<option class="green">Green
					<option class="red">Red
					</select>
