Steps to Reproduce Behavior

1. Save the following to a file named TestColor.java:

         import java.applet.Applet;
         import java.awt.*;
   
         public class TestColor extends Applet
         {
            public void init()
            {
               List l = new List();
               add(l);
               l.addItem( "1" );
               l.addItem( "2" );
               l.addItem( "3" );
               l.setBackground(Color.blue);
               l.setForeground(Color.yellow);
   
               Choice c = new Choice();
               add( c );
               c.addItem( "1" );
               c.addItem( "2" );
               c.addItem( "3" );
               c.setBackground(Color.blue);
   
               Scrollbar sb = new Scrollbar(Scrollbar.VERTICAL);
               add( sb);
               sb.setBackground(Color.blue);
            }
         }
   					

2. Compile the file.
3. Run the applet in Internet Explorer 4.0x.
4. The Choice control paints the specified background color, blue, in the button that drops down the choices. The expected system color for buttons is gray in the default Window desktop theme. The Foreground color of the List control does not change to yellow.
   
   In addition, the Scrollbar's arrows and thumb change to the new background color, blue, instead of the expected system color for buttons (gray in the default Window desktop theme).
