Your CSS is unwise. For safe cascading, one should specify a definite
colour for both properties - or for neither.
Specifying background: transparent is, logically, only safe in conjunction
with specifying color: inherit.
Whether this is the motivation for the CSS checker's report, I don't know
("transparent" is the default anyway), but it's good advice nevertheless.
That's assuming you care about cascading with some other stylesheet (e.g
belonging to the user) that's not under your control. You /should/ care,
but it's your choice really.
