Hi!

My mozilla debug build complained about this when viewing the CSS3 page:

CSS Error (http://www.w3.org/StyleSheets/Core/Traditional :192.23): 
Expected color but found 'fffffa'.  Error in parsing value for property 
'background'.  Declaration dropped.
CSS Error (http://www.w3.org/StyleSheets/Core/Traditional :196.23): 
Expected color but found 'fffffa'.  Error in parsing value for property 
'background'.  Declaration dropped.

This seem to come from:
 http://www.w3.org/StyleSheets/Core/Traditional
a:link    {
    background:    fffffa;
    }

a:visited    {
    background:    fffffa;
    }

Isn't it necessary for hex values to be prefixed by a '#'?

One might note that the CSS validator is perfectly happy about the file. :-)
