Nominating for nsbeta1. Document properties such as bgcolor should function in XHTML.

I disagree, changing document's background color via script isn't a beta stopper. You can set the backround color with CSS and attributes on the body element. This bug has been marked "future" because the original netscape engineer working on this is over-burdened. If you feel this is an error, that you or another known resource will be working on this bug,or if it blocks your work in some way -- please attach your concern to the bug for reconsideration.

Actually setting the bgcolor in a normal html doesn't seem to work either.. http://gemal.dk/util/bgcolor.html
This doesn't seem like an XML or XHTML bug to me. I doesn't work in normal HTML documents either. I think it ought to be re-categorized as a DOM0 bug. And it ought to be fixed. This bug breaks any web site that does cheesy background color animations (fade to black...) And, for what its worth, it breaks an example in my book JavaScript:The Definitive Guide. There are hundreds of thousands of javascripters out there who may try to run the example with Mozilla!

This works in a HTML Transitional 4.0 document: http://mozilla.org/quality/browser/standards/html/script_src.html

David, You might try pulling a newer build since it works for me with HTML files (June 28th). This may have accidentally got broken then got fixed. This particular bug is a XHTML issue only.

XHTML as xml gets an XML document instead of an HTML one, hence no bgcolor property. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 111514 ***
