Thanks, Bob

// show word select in am empty list box.     nestUnderListBox.addItem("Select...");

// This line did not make "Select..." gray italic.

nestUnderListBox.setStyleName("nextUnderListBoxInitial");

what you are trying to do isn't possible with CSS!

See styling HTML form list box with CSS or jQuery for other Ideas!

That's not possible with ListBox.

But, you can use something like CellList (GWT-Showcase) and re-develop the functionality from ListBox.
