Applying Themes And Skins .net 2.0 To DropDown (Driving me Crazy. Please Help

[kfc1976]

Hi All,
First of all, following are the facts
1) I've been trying to solve the following issue for the past 8 hours
(Not Kidding)
2) If I can't find the answer, It will drive me completely crazy

Platform:
XP Pro, .net 2.0 FrameWork, Visual Studio 2005

Problem Regarding:
Theme and skins in ASP.net 2.0

Achieved:
Was successfully able to apply skin and theme (With BACKGROUND Images)
to TEXT BOX, BUTTON, Calendar, Grid etc

Question:
I am trying to apply a theme with background image (defined in a css)
to a DropDownList and listbox but for some reason it will not show any
background image skin/theme when it rendered in the browser. However, I
can change background color, font color and such

Concern 1:
Is this a bug??????????????/

Concern 2:
If not a bug, then why the hell would Microsoft allow themes to be put
on all controls to change the look and feel but NOT dropdownlist and
listboxes


Thanks a million for whoever replies to this message
Thanks
Farooq

Good question, to which extent are themes supported when mapped to a
control.
