Hi all
I've always learnt that setting the background colour on a site is a very
basic thing to do and shows that as a web developer you've taken care and
pride in your work.
All of the browsers that I use I have set a ridiculously garish background
colour set to remind myself to do it. I am teased relentlessly for this.
However it is important to me.
It never ceases to amaze me the number of sites that do not set a background
colour. As if adding body { background-color: #FFFFFF; } is a really
tedious task.
I'm curious to know your thoughts on this matter, as it literally drives me
bonkers. I am fully aware that we have moved on from the default grey
background of Netscape 3(?) and by default browsers will set their
background colours to white. Does this mean it's okay for developers to be
lazy and sloppy and not bother to set it. Or am I just too old school
(eep!!) and set in my ways.
Looking forward to your opinions.
Thanks
Kristina
