(don't rely on the user's default
- as it won't always be a default white).

If the user's default is not white, it's not white for a reason.
Reespect it.

It just doesn't work that way.

Have a look at three pages I've whipped up...

http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/duncanm4/page_one.htm

No background colour set on that page. Probably looks just fine on most
PC's that use the default "Window" colour. But that won't hold true for
all.

Here's page two - background colour set to White.

And here's page three - what page one looks like on *my* PC...
http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/dun...page_three.htm


At one point (with a different monitor) I was using a light shade of
"puke green" because the monitor flickered, and that color minimized
the eyestrain.

Well you set your "puke green" - on again, and try page_one.htm -
like it? Didn't think so.

For more eg's of good htm - one only needs to check out.. oh... cnn.com,
abc.com, microsoft.com, google.com - you name it - the background colour
is *set* (and usually white).
