A warning is given that there is no declared background when a color is declared
regardless of the fact that a background is indeed declared!  It is declared as
transparent!  To the best of my knowledge background: transparent; is valid CSS.
 It also keeps hovered tree like css menus on my new site layout staying blue
(versus black) to give a nice visual of the hierarchy of the menu system.

So warnings should not pop up for no background declaration if the background is
declared (regardless of it's value so long of course as it is valid).

Here is the CSS url...
http://www.jabcreations.com/temp/xhtml/themes/theme-city_w3c.css
(this file will not be modified during development versus the file
theme-city.css will probally be modified and may contain temp. errors or other
unrelated warnings.

There are no other warnings or errors in this css file (and the xhtml pages all
validate just fine).
