This is a layout problem. The body is being created by document.write, but when the document properties are set, the nsIDOMElement for the <BODY> doesn't exist yet in nsHTMLDocument::GetBodyContent(), which returns PR_FALSE. Either a layout or DOM bug, take your pick.

Target Milestone: M8
A DOM bug, I guess. The problem, as Patrick mentioned, is that the document properties mentioned are set in the head (before the body is created) and our current implementation expects the body to be around before they are set.
This problem still occurs in the June 30th Build.

Switched the document.bgColor,fgColor,etc. setters to set up a style rule in the HTMLStyleSheet if the BODY element doesn't yet exist. Fix checked in on 7/6/1999.

Fixed in the July 7th build(1999070708).
