I'm kinda surprised that there is no support for floating point colors though. Althought I guess that "rgb(x%, x%, x%) An RGB percentage value (e.g. rgb(100%,0%,0%))" is as close as you get to that... Does percentage rgb color support things like 85.41% though? I hope so as only rgb(x%, x%, x%) is tentatively gamut independent. -- Roger "Rescator" H?gensen. Freelancer - http://EmSai.net/
