When loading a background image, the color displayed for the unloaded portion can make the text unreadable. I would suggest using the HTML background color for unloaded portion of the graphics in lieu of any color information provided by the background image. This was tested on M5/i386/linux on kernel 2.2.9. I would assume that something like this is platform-independant, but seeing as there are only linux boxes around I can't test it elsewhere anyway. Let me know if you need more info.

Ramiro -- can you take a look. This sounds like it's the correct behavior, and not something we should fix. Please get back to me.

the font colors are specified by the content authors. If they are bad, then its ugly content. reassign to waqar. waqar: can you make sure this page has the same expected behavior on both unix and windows ?

The above test case seems to work fine, in the latest build. Tested on Mac, Windows, and Linux with same results. Communicator shows the same results.
Bad URL. I tried to access this url (http://macc.ml.org) but it can't locate the server.

Reporter, please provide a url that I can access. The current URL is bad.
http://206.184.152.111/botball/index.html was generating this behaviour, but appears to work now.
