Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8

When implementing the Mozilla Rich Text API, the commands "hilitecolor" and
"backcolor" do not work.  The command "hilitecolor" works in Mozilla version
1.3+, and in Mozilla Firebird 0.61-0.7.  

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Visit http://www.kevinroth.com/rte/demo.htm
2. Select some text in the rich text editor control
3. Click the background color icon and select a color

Actual Results:  
Command does nothing.  There is no error or anything.

Expected Results:  
Should have made the background the color selected for the selected text.  If
the "hilitecolor" command is no longer supported, there should be an error
message in the javascript debugger.
