From conversation on n.p.m.xpfe
--------
Eric says:
I have to following code to change the background color of my iframe:
function setBackground() {
var e = window.frames[0].document.documentElement;
e.childNodes[1].setAttribute("style", "background-color: #c5d2de;");
}
and the following code to write into this iframe at different times:
function setContentArea(spell) {
with (window.frames[0].document) {
open();
write('<FONT FACE="Helvetica, Times New Roman" STYLE="font-size: 10pt;">');
write(spell.description);
write('</FONT>');
close();
}
}
The problem is that the background color gets set and stays after the first call
to setContentArea, but after I call it again, the background goes to white.
This seems to have shown up in 0.9.4. In 0.9.3 the background stays #c5d2de.

Brian says:
I am seeing the same thing, except more exaggerated. It is flashing to teh set
colour and then turning white again immediately. I'm using 0.9.5.

Eric continues:
Dave Hyatt also said that I should file a bug, because it probably is a ruletree
regression ...

this is a style system issue (although I'm not sure this is really a bug since the document.open is replacing the previous document).

So... the code sets the background on the <body> in the iframe. Then it document.writes into it, blowing away the whole existing document, including the body. This is invalid; if you want to set a background on the iframe, just set it on the iframe.
