Hi Sandra, 
        First off, let me say that I absolutely accept you as the
authority on CSS, at least on this list. But... This seems to work (in
the drop-downs if no size specified), even on chrome:

<form>
<select name="s"> 
        <option style="background-color:green">Green</option>
        <option style="background-color:red">Red</option>
</select>
</form>

You can't color individual option tags.  You can however color
<optgroup>
tags

this colors the entire option tag

here's the rendered html with a div in place, still no love

<select name="hex_id" id="hex_id">
     <option value="#6666CC" selected><div style="display: block; 
background-color:#6666CC; border:medium; border-color:#000000; 
width:10px; height:10px;">&nbsp;</div>#6666CC</option> 
     <option value="#66CC66" ><div style="display: block; 
background-color:#66CC66; border:medium; border-color:#000000; 
width:10px; height:10px;">&nbsp;</div>#66CC66</option> 
     <option value="#CC6699" ><div style="display: block; 
background-color:#CC6699; border:medium; border-color:#000000; 
width:10px; height:10px;">&nbsp;</div>#CC6699</option>
</select>
