1) A warning is not an error 2) Yes, background colour and foreground colour should be both defined and have enough contrast, however, adding background:transparent; just to please a validator is making the validator more important than your visitors or other developers who have to maintain your work. As background _does_ get inherited it is not always necessary to define it, pending the next parent element does have a background defined. 3) It is a validator, a stupid script running on a computer 4) Pixies do this over night. Or maybe the validator has been changed. -- Chris Heilmann Blog: http://www.wait-till-i.com Writing: http://icant.co.uk/ Binaries: http://www.onlinetools.org/ ______________________________________________________________________ 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/
