Penny Arcade is illegible in Dillo[1]. The problem is that its CSS sets the text attribute on the html element and Dillo ignores this, so we get black text on blue instead of white text on blue. Here is a demo: <html> <head> <style type="text/css">html{text:#F00;}</style> </head> <body> Blah, blah, blah </body> </html> The text is plain black, but if you change html to body in the CSS then the text is red as it should be. Thoughts on how to fix this? It's not obvious to me whether this is a one-liner patch or something more radical is needed. Regards, Jeremy Henty [1] see http://www.penny-arcade.com/2010/9/10/
