Because in the HTML 3 draft it states that backgrounds are really *ONLY*
inteded for clients which do not support style sheets. Style sheets
should give you the ability to change colors/backgrounds/whatever.
Netscape should (for once) try following a standard (of sorts) and USE
STYLE SHEETS INSTEAD.
