| (GetBkColor) | Returns the current background color | Steve, I took out the href stuff for this product and round rectangle, just to see how it went. Would this be enough room for comments or do you want to comment in the link which is a bit messy at the moment. The link is to a heading within a page and I can't remember how to not show the complicated link info and all my notes on this stuff are at home and I am not. |
