Now would you tell me what good black on black or white on white is?
I quite often see web sites that render black on black in dillo. I assume they use some standard trick that dillo doesn't support.
If I were to guess, they're probably using HTML for the background and CSS for the text, or possibly doing something nonstandard like putting <font color="white"> at the beginning of the page instead of inside each block element. So the site is either badly designed (relying on two separate technologies instead of one for something as critical as readability) or badly coded (using code that happened to work in Netscape 2 and IE, but fails in a stricter rendering engine).
Yes, that's the main cause (invisible text is also used to spam google, but the user seldom notices :). Unfortunately "force_my_colors" will make every page in that Dillo render in the same colors. I'm thinking of adding a togle button to let the user do this on the fly. -- Cheers Jorge.-
