|Really... cause when I was making my web page (now defunct), I had all pages
|referring to one .CSS file, which contained a BODY attribute to set default
|font, bg color, etc...
|Showed up in Netscape, but in IE4 I ended up having a white backround rather
|than the purple I had specified (don't ask - I'll just quote a friend...
|"Wow... that's... purple!"... "Nifty color scheme..."), and IE4's default
|fonts. NOTE: this is in a frame, but that shouldn't make a difference..

On my ISP's monthly online newsletter, (of which I am an editor) we use a
file called articles.css to set a default style for the articles. All of
them work properly. (The colour is sets to is white, but I changed my
default to black temporarily to check)

Ahh well, this is off topic so enough of it now.
