Author colors on snaps.php.net

Hi:

Here's the body tag on snaps.php.net:

<body bgcolor="white">

Notice no text or *link colors are specified. If an color is specified,
all colors must be specified in order to guarantee the text/links contrast
with the backround color. Not doing so leads to viewing problems for
persons with non-default configurations.

For example, my machine's settings use a white font on a dark background
(man, staring at a white screen all day hurts my eyes). So, when going to
this page, the dark background gets overridden by the page, making my
white text invisible.

Thanks,

--Dan

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your suggestion. I have forwarded your letter to the system
admnistrators, who are responsible for the snaps machine.

Regards,
Gabor Hojtsy
