How are you trying to change the bgcolor dynamically, and what object are
you trying to change the color of?
When I change the bgcolor of the document, I can only change it during the
onload event, otherwise the new color flashes for a second and then goes
away. However, If I set it in the onload event, I do get silver when I ask
for 'silver'. I got the same behavior on IE5.5, NS4.73, and NS 6.1.
Here's what I did:
<html>
<head>
<script language='javascript'>
function changecolor(){
document.bgColor='silver'
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload='changecolor()'>
<h3>This is a test of dynamically setting the document bgcolor</h3>
</body>
</html>
