I have a linkbutton declared as:
<asp:linkbutton ID="PersonalInfoTab" OnClick="PersonalInfo" 
Runat="server" Text="Personal Information" />

How do I set the backcolor for an asp:linkbutton on the server side?  It 
doesn't like "PersonalInfoTab.Backcolor="#000099"?

Thanks!!

this works for me:

<asp:LinkButton BackColor=red Runat=server ID=lbLinkButton>Click 
here!</asp:LinkButton>

and you can set it programmatically like so: (vb)

lbLinkButton.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue

however, I'm not sure how you'd assign a custom color, such as #000099

this works for me:

<asp:LinkButton BackColor=3Dred Runat=3Dserver ID=3DlbLinkButton>Click
here!</asp:LinkButton>

and you can set it programmatically like so: (vb)

lbLinkButton.BackColor =3D System.Drawing.Color.Blue

however, I'm not sure how you'd assign a custom color, such as #000099
