transparency of black? drop-down menu

in ie5.5 or Moz0.9.7 select white type on a black background, and ignore 
specified colors then:

the background of a drop-down list appears as transparent, with 
illegible results

I'm not sure whether this was specific to the [Scripts-TECHS] drop-down 
menu, but thought it was serious enough to merit general attention and 
comment. Please do send in your comments, it beats me.

I was going to send this:

Please note resize window to 'too small'.

The text "This is where the content goes." needs to be placed in such a 
way as not to interfere with the list.


but the issue seems more serious


thanks
