This warning should not be applied. Many websites use background-image for 
backgrounds on their web pages. Thus the background color on links and "H" 
tags and "HR" tags in CSS MUST be "transparent". I have test numerous pages of 
my website against the validator and it comes up with warnings on all of 
my "H", "hr", and "a" tags. The additional comment below from Yves Lafon which 
shows a "fixed" validator works perfectly. Why is it NOT being utilized? Here 
is an example page for you to test on to see WHY this MUST be corrected.

Please look into this and help ALL of us image backgrounded website owners out.
Thank you
