My WebHelp (done in RH X5) has a style for "Heading 1" paragraphs that has
ordinary black text over a bar of color. Actually, the color fades artfully
toward the right-hand side of the screen, but I doubt that matters.

When viewed in Internet Explorer, it looks just like it does in RH.

When viewed in FireFox or Opera (as many of our Linux/UNIX customers will
do), a Heading 1 paragraph is just the black text on the white page... no
color behind it.

There's a twist. If the page is long enough for a bit of scrolling, I can
scroll until the heading reaches about 5 millimeters from the top of the
frame... at which point the background color bar starts to become visible.

The color/fade bar is just a simple .jpg file.

Any ideas why this would happen?

Versions of IE, Opera and FireFox are all current.

Any other point of info that would be relevant?

I've got a request in to Head Office (whence the style template originated),
but I think they mostly use IE and wouldn't have noticed.
