I'm fiddling with some pages and went to see whether the CSS will
validate.

Unfortunately, not.

The validator gives warning "you have no background-color with your
color" for several elements. But I specifically put in
"background-color: transparent", which is allowed/required according
to CSS 2.1:

"background-color
This property sets the background color of an element, either a
<color> value or the keyword 'transparent', to make the underlying
colors shine through."

So why the warning?

I also used the extended file upload interface and told the validator
to use CSS 2.1 but got the same warning.
