[OpenLayers-Users] Set Z-Index of a Feature

[Dizzle]

I saw that example and I'm still having problems.  I have a function:
function sendToBack(selectedFeature) {
// selectedFeature is a OpenLayers.Feature.Vector
??
}
I can't get the z-index of selected feature to change.  It was a polygon
created by using wkt.read("POLYGON((......))");

I've tried things like this:
selectedFeature.style = OpenLayers.Util.applyDefaults({ graphicZIndex: 1},
OpenLayers.Feature.Vector.style['default']);
to no avail.  Any help would be appreciated.
