> When you move the caret to inside P, you see black caret but with your patch, the caret will be white.  What we really need to do here is to obtain the bitmap from the screen and XOR it to make caret's bitmap.  At least that's what MSIE and other applications do on Windows.  This probably needs to be done at platform level rather than in WebCore because each platform has its own way of creating caret.

IE has a problem in the gray background.

<div style="background-color: gray; color: black;">background-color: gray</div>

The caret color becomes gray in the above case, so we can't find the caret.
In other cases, IE seems well, including the image background.

If we go to platform specific-behavior, should we follow the Windows way for all platforms?
