title: Setting background colour of Silverlight Listbox
body: <p>How do I set the background colour of a listbox? I have a listbox with textblocks in it and there does not appear to be anyway that actually works to set the background colour of these controls, why is this seemingly so hard?</p>
  
  <p>In the interests of full disclosure I asked a similar <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/152376/dynamically-setting-background-colour-of-a-silverlight-control-listbox#152502">question</a> earlier</p>
