If you have a simple HTML page that looks like this :

<HTML>
<BODY>
Hello
</BODY>
</HTML>

the backgound color will be white on Windows and grey on Linux. I don't have a
Mac to test, so I'm not sure what this platform will display.

It would be nice if Linux would display the background as white, like the
Windows builds. Netscape 4.x also has this issue.

There are a few pages on the web that forget to tell the browser what the
background color is. Yahoo is a biggie.

This isn't an earth-shattering bug, but it would be nice to correct for the sake
of consistancy. I've included some screen shots demonstrating the differences
for what its worth...

Thanks

David
