title: Applying a theme to v7 Support Action Bar
body: <p>I am using the support v7 library to implement <code>ActionBar</code> in my app..I have this in my <code>styles.xml</code> file</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;
  &lt;resources xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"&gt;
      &lt;style name="AppTheme" parent="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar"&gt;
          &lt;item name="android:actionBarStyle"&gt;@style/ActionBarTheme&lt;/item&gt;
      &lt;/style&gt;
      &lt;style name="ActionBarTheme" parent="android:Widget.ActionBar"&gt;
          &lt;item name="android:background"&gt;#FFFF0000&lt;/item&gt;
      &lt;/style&gt;
  &lt;/resources&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, Eclipse complains in the <code>actionBarStyle</code> line. The error is this one: </p>
  
  <p><code>android:actionBarStyle requires API level 11 (current min is 8)</code></p>
  
  <p>What can I do to apply my theme to API levels 8-10?</p>
