O.P. RE: New foreign Messenger Plus! forums
one is american other is english....

well, this is a bug in MSIE/Avant Browser then: grey<>green.

If it doesn't know "grey", why does it convert it to "green" then? Seems to me that the "smart"-feature is doing not so smart things here...

(typical M$, trying to aid the user, but instead ending up implementing stupid, inlogic, confusing, standard-changing things :@, oh oh, I'm gonna get it now..... :D)

If a color isn't reconized, it should be the default textcolor (usually black)...

Let's test something :P

What color is this? ([color=greffalicus])
What color is this? ([color=yellybelly])

both should be BLACK, not lightgreen and dirty yellow....
:P


This is an perfect example of how MSIE changes the standards to something completely different. It also is a nice example why you shouldn't use colorwords in your HTML editing but instead use "#rrggbb" notation if you develop a homepage...
