The problem is the definition of the special <color> value the 'background' property of the LEGEND element should have. I tried to solve this once back in November 2003: <http://annevankesteren.nl/test/form/layout/test.htm> I believe I even mailed www-style about a possible 'display:fieldset|inline-fieldset' and 'display:legend' so it could be manipulated and authors could whatever they please. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/>
