When a color is applied to a link, midas does not show the color properly.

CODE :

<a href="index.html" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-size: 14px;">red link</a>

This works ok on the midas demo but every other rich text editor using midas has a problem with it.





Reproducible: Always

3. paste this as the HTML - <a href="index.html" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-size: 14px;">red link</a>
4. Unclick 'View Source'
5. The link is now blue instead of red.
Actual Results:  
Link shown in midas is blue

Expected Results:  
Link shown in midas is red

Fails on Midas demo using FF 3.6.
A workaround is to use !important:
<a href="#" style="color: red !important">red link</a>
