I have the following in an external style sheet

#content {background-color:#fffdda;color:maroon;font-weight:bold;}

I can get iSilo to recognize any text color but no background colors.
Is this a function of either iSilo or my device (Palm Zire 31), or am I doing something wrong.

What you have there should work. Could you post a small example file for which it does not?

This is the stylesheet. All text colors and alignments work. No backgrounds work

body {background-color: #fffdda;color: maroon; font-weight:bold;}

#toparea {background-color: maroon;color: #fffdda; font-weight:bold;text-align:center;}

#content {background-color:#fffdda;color:maroon;font-weight:bold;}

#content a:link {color: blue;background-color:silver;font-weight: 900;}
#content a:visited {color:blue;background-color:silver;}
#content a:hover {color: red; font-size: 95%; background-color:silver;
font-weight: 900; font-variant: small-caps; }
#content a:active {color:blue;background-color:silver;}
#content a {text-decoration: none;}

p {text-indent: 2cm;}
h1 {
font-weight: 900; color:red;text-align: center;font-variant: small-caps;
text-decoration: none; font-size:14px; }
h2
{
font-weight: 900; color:green;text-align: left; font-variant: small-caps;
text-decoration: none; font-size:10px; }
h3
{
font-weight: 900; color:green;text-align: right; font-variant: small-caps;
text-decoration: none; font-size:10px; }

iSilo does not have support for styles on link actions, so the styles that you specified on the <a> element's with pseudo classes do nothing in iSilo. If you need to specify a style on an <a> element that has an href attribute, you can do this:

A[href] {color: blue;background-color:silver;font-weight: 900;}
