Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a simple HTML page containing just the body and a little bit of text 2. give body a border and a background colour 3. make sure the browser's window is large enough to display the text with plenty of room left over Actual Results: the body's background fills the screen, but the border does not. Expected Results: if a window is too large for the contained elements, then the body should not be artificially expanded to full the full screen, but /actually/ expanded, so that the border reaches right to the bottom of the page, instead of displaying just under the last of the contained elements.
For HTML this is the desired rendering according to CSS 2.1: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/colors.html#q2 Try setting non-transparent background on <html> or use XHTML. -> INVALID
