Textbox BackColor

Hi,

I have a simple textbox control on my aspx. I want to change the BackColor of that textbox when a button is triggered through the use of a function in my code behind file. My code does not work:

I am using System.Drawing

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. protected void myEmpty(object source, EventArgs e)
  2.     {
  3.           tb1.Text = "Something.";
  4.  
  5.           tb1.BackColor = Color.Red;
  6.     }
  7.  
When I click the button, text will appear but the background color does not change.

I've read around but haven't found any answers yet.
