For example: > BODY { background: URL("ivy.gif") white } > uses the background file only. > BODY { background: white URL("ivy.gif") } > also uses only the background file. > > That's more or less how I'd expect it to work, as the image will completely overlay any background colour. > To be consistant with netscape/explorer interpretation > both file and color should be used. > The advantage with what IE and NS do is that you can get an approximate colour whilst you are waiting for the image to load, but the final result is just the image.
