when viewing a page with cells that have different background colors set with
the bgcolor tag, mozilla does not read it.  instead mozilla wants to use the
background-color tag to set a cell background. bgcolor is the W3C standard.  i
would think that it would be best for mozilla to comply to W3C standards.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. got to a page with bgcolor setting a cell background color
2. look at the page, mozilla doesnt read it

Actual Results:  
no cell background color shown

Expected Results:  
read the tag to do the cell background

no crash
