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.

so we have nothing to change then? the current style is just fine?

./allan

ps the original ISSUE about link-color is unsolvable and
also should not be solved because it's a specfic browser bug.

Hi doc folks,

With regard to this issue:

 Status: Allan says it's clearly a bug in that browser setup.
 however we should one day fix the color values for all the span
 tags. We only specfiy a colour because we must (to validate)
 because we must have a background-color. If we specify
   color: inherit;
 netscape 4 turns the colour to green (!)

I suggest you try setting the background-color to "transparent", instead.
This works quite well for my site.

Thanks David,

does this work with older browsers? NS4 seems to be the best browser for
discovering things that won't work in other older browsers :)
