DataGrid Color - Annoying feature

I created a simple Datagrid with normal <body> tag (background white by
default), the DataGrid shows padding color = GREY.

Now, if I change the <body> bgcolor = red, the DataGrid is TOO SMART and it
updates the padding color automatically, now the padding color in DataGrid
becomes WHITE!!!!???? Try that yourself..

How can I stop this from happening? or which properties can I use to
override this?

Help.

Hi Zean,

For an accurate formatting of any server control, use cascading stylesheets.
This is a demo for applying CSS to the DataGrid
