Today I got latest from the subversion repository and am now getting an 
error (in IE 7) in some code related to MochiKit.Color.Color.fromBackground 
when I was not before (i.e. it used to work fine, now it doesn't).

MochiKit.Color.Color.fromBackground calls 
MochiKit.Color.Color.fromComputedStyle, which *used* to call out to 
MochiKit.Style.computedStyle and now calls MochiKit.Style.getStyle. I have 
narrowed the breaking change down to that point, but can't seem to get much 
further (because I don't have the time at this very moment nor yet the 
understanding of what is going on) and simply wanted to provide an example 
of what used to work - if you run the following example against the 
*current* code base, it will work in FireFox but not IE 7:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" 
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd";>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
   <head>
   <title></title>
   <script type="text/javascript" src="MochiKit/MochiKit.js"></script>
   <script type="text/javascript">

      connect(window, "onload", function() {
         var mySpan = SPAN(null, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer 
adipiscing elit.");
         alert(Color.fromBackground(mySpan).toHexString());
      });

   </script>
   </head>
   <body>
   </body>
</html>

Wish I could do a better job debugging this; if no one has any immediate 
ideas on how this might be fixed, I will see if I can look at it in the next 
week....

Thanks
