Change selection colour of listbox

Hello,

I have changed the colour of the entries in my listbox. When I select
an entry the standard is that it is highlighted in blue. But the
problem is that before I customized the colour of the entries a
selected entry's text was shown in white. Now it stays the same and
thus the entry text is hard to read. Now, instead of highlighting a
selected entry in blue I'd like to say highlight in in yellow or -
better still - draw a rectangle around it. Is that possible?

Thanks in advance.
