I finally had a chance to try Nick's suggestion. Using inspector, I was able to fix the problem. I believe that there is a new layer. The body element had the background color that I set, but the new layer was on top and it had a white background. I changed the background color of that layer to solve the problem. I was also able to make many other adjustments to improve the appearance thanks to the information I found in inspector -- and I barely tapped its capabilities. Thanks to all for the support and especially to Nick for telling me about inspector.
