From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:0.9.6) Gecko/20011120 BuildID: 20011112009 Background-color is ignored in absolutely positioned box if its parent box has no width specified. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: See http://www.nestor.cz/pas/test/test1.html
The background color is not being ignored. it's just that the boxes come out with a width of 0. You _do_ want to set a width on them; otherwise the results are not really determined...
Well, according to the new rules we probably should be able to handle this.
