Which is good, because such a browser would be non-conformant. The spec requires the default value to be repeat. See http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/colors.html#background-properties. I also wanted to point to the spec because the original question was about proper syntax. The spec is the authoritative source for those sorts of questions, for those who don't want to wait for an answer on the list. -- -Adam Kuehn __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

BTW, Topstyle is worth the investment - type a property and it lets you select from all the valid values for it. -- Richard Grevers New Plymouth, New Zealand Orphan Gmail invites free to good homes. __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
