i agree with david we should do this for the span rules. the problem with transparent is that netscape 4 in some variations turns it into black (!). i pretty sure it doesn't understand it, which is good in a sense, because if it doesn't understand it, it won't render it and therefore the background will be transparent. but if we specfiy a border to 1px for instance, it realy does understand that it should render some background-color and if it then meet the value 'transparent' it will of course turn it into ... black.
anyway, in the case of these span rules it's not a problem and all our divs that are not specified with a border are already transparent. ./allan ps the original ISSUE about link-color is unsolvable and also should not be solved because it's a specfic browser bug.
