I have a CSS that sets the background-color for "body", and also the
background-color for "h1" and also for "th". The last two work, but the bgcolor
for "body" has no effect. It works in Netscape 4.7x.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Put "colortest.html" and "colortest.css" in same directory
2. View colortest.html in browser
Actual Results: The background color of the page is white.
Expected Results: The background color of the page should be red.
colortest.css:
-------------------
<STYLE TYPE="text/css">
<!--
body { background-color: #FF0000 }
A:hover { color: red }
H1 { color: #440000; text-align: center;
font-family: Arial Black, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif}
TH.TITLE { background-color: #EF8429; font-size: 28px;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;}
-->
</STYLE>
-------------------
colortest.html:
-------------------
<!-- -*- HTML -*- -->
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html> <head>
<title>Page Title</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="colortest.css" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<table border="5" align="center">
<tr><th class="TITLE">Page Title</th></tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Closed as Invalid. HTML tags and comments are illegal in LINKed stylesheets.
Change colortest.css to the following and it will work:
colortest.css:
-------------------
body { background-color: #FF0000 }
A:hover { color: red }
H1 { color: #440000; text-align: center;
font-family: "Arial Black", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif}
TH.TITLE { background-color: #EF8429; font-size: 28px;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;}
-------------------
