Background Color

Syntax:	background-color: <value>
Possible Values:	<color> \| transparent
Initial Value:	transparent
Applies to:	All elements
Inherited:	No

The background-color property sets the background color of an element. For example:

BODY { background-color: white }
H1   { background-color: #000080 }

To help avoid conflicts with user style sheets, background-image should be specified whenever background-color is used. In most cases, background-image: none is suitable.

Authors may also use the shorthand background property, which is currently better supported than the background-color property.
