This is actually not completely accurate. The text colors are specified
through the associated style sheet:
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/style/default.css:
body {
background: white;
color: black;
}
But I'll admit that for the sake of browsers not supporting CSS these
should be specified in the HTML as well.
