           Summary: Background colors can't be reset to the default color
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 522+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://www.joomlapolis.com/component/option,com_comprofi
                    ler/task,registers/
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: P4
         Component: HTML DOM
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

In all browsers, except Safari and webkit, background colors can be saved and
restored.

it looks like if el.style.background.slice(0,3) isn't handled properly ?

To reproduce:

Go to URL specified, go to bottom without filling out anything, hit "Send
Registration": all mandatory fields becom red, all is fine there.

Now go to any mandatory field, fill in something, then hit again "Send
Registration", you will see that field remains red, while in all other browsers
it reverts to background color.

This is done with Javascript on the DOM in the following way:

var cbDefaultFieldBackground;
                        if (me[i].value == '') {
                                errorMSG +=  blablabla\n';
                                if (cbDefaultFieldBackground === undefined)
cbDefaultFieldBackground = ((me[i].style.getPropertyValue) ?
me[i].style.getPropertyValue("background") : me[i].style.background);
                                me[i].style.background = "red";
                                iserror=1;
                        } elseif (me[i].style.background.slice(0,3)=="red")
me[i].style.background = cbDefaultFieldBackground;

Looking forward to a fix, as well as a hint how to make this function work in
Safari ;-)
