I'm surprised no-one's pointed out the obvious: that using "background" will override all other background-* properties (to their default values), in addition to setting background-color. Using "background-color" will just set that property and inherit the others. Depending on your existing CSS, this could be significant. - Bobby ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
