Can you find an example of it being done? Unless there's some non-obvious

Just thought of this... one thing you could do is set the text color of
each option. That *does* work. Might serve your purpose alright.
You can actually set the color style attribute or background-color, both
work.

I was thinking you could build an actual custom control to do this, and
that's a good start... add a down arrow to the right of it to show the
dropdown portion and lock the textbox from editing and you'd have a good
start.

Okay, somewhere in my head I can remember seeing an example of this,
but I can't recall where it was. Sounds like the solution (if one
exists) is non-trivial. Appreciate the ideas and if I do come across
or develop some sort of solution I will post back to this thread.

Actually, based on Joe's suggestion, I just threw it together just now.
This is literally hacked together off the top of my head, and only tested

Faisal,
Why you want to use image, you can use stylesheet. You may refer following
code:
HTML
HEAD
TITLE New Document /TITLE
STYLE type=text/css
OPTION.mar{background-color:maroon; color:white}
OPTION.red{background-color:red; color:maroon}
OPTION.blue{background-color:blue; color:maroon}
