I disagree. I think that if you set the foreground, you must set the background. Otherwise, what do you do about people whose default backgrounds clash with (or match) one of the foreground colors. I'm sorry, but this is my pet peeve about web pages also -- people think that they know better what foreground colors I want for links, etc., and don't take into account that I have a black background rather than a light grey. -- Colin
