You could use browser sniffing to find out which browser the client is using, and use that to determine your palette. Google will help you with browser sniffing.

The important thing is that you're using one of the combinations that every design guide recommends against because of its inherent illegibility. In general it's a better idea to have dark text against a lighter background. Think about the number of books and magazines you see with black pages and light print, and ask yourself if you'd want to read something printed like that. -- Bob > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of John Celio > Sent: 27 October 2007 05:57 > To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List > Subject: Re: PESO: Danglin' Bee > > > John, I don't think I mentioned this before but there is a slight > > problem with your page -- > > the blue lettering (sort of electric blue) is so dark as > to be almost > > invisible against the black > > background... of course, your young eyes may have no > trouble with it, > > but you could lighten it > > a bit and it still would be a nice color combination and > easier to see. > > I've noticed this is a problem with Firefox, but not > InternetExplorer.
