Page Background Colour

[Jeff Gaines]

I am using one of the standard gif files for my page background. I have
had a complaint from somebody who finds it difficult to deal with a white
background.

I have set up a test site and removed the background gif but I can't find
a combination of background colour that honours the colour set in Windows.
I have tried none, automatic and transparent. I don't want to specify a
background colour, I want to follow whatever the user has set up. Can I do
this?

This is as bad as it can get, but don't bet on it

set colour to transparent
set image to automatic to use style image or browse for an image

Many thanks Anton, that works perfectly :-)

The fact that I was previewing in Firefox and it wasn't set to use system
colours didn't help much!
