How can you set the background color of an IFRAME, before its contents
appear?

I know that an IFRAME must set its styles or use a style sheet of its
own. My problem is that I have an IFRAME whose content is generated by a
CGI script. It takes a couple of seconds to appear.

My page has a colored background. Firefox paints the IFRAME with the
background-color specified for the body. But in Internet Explorer the
IFRAME initially appears as an ugly white box, until the content appears.
