wait - i just realized something.. your coloring the form boxes? and inputs? or the
table the form is in?
place the color instructions on the table or td tags. Use the CSS to redefine the
table or similair tag
In any event explain better exactly what you are trying to recolor as background.. and
is CSS only option. Use the <td> bgcolor or an image as background...
