I am not totally a novice, but only have self-trained experience. I am looking for a way to randomly change the background color and text color with my web pages. My thought is to put a counter on my home page and every even number on the counter the background color will be yellow and every odd number the colors will change to something else. If there4 is a script for this I would be truly grateful to learn how this would work. I have posted on the CSS/HTML forum with a similar question.
Thanks for any help that can be provided.

I would prepare an array with allowed background colors and I would use Math.random * sizeOfArray on each page load to get index to that array, took and set color from it.
This way you can keep reasonable bg colors (pseudo) randomly selected.

I am very new to js what is math.ramdom
You can find detailed information about Math object (beware, case matters) here.
There is a lot of other useful information on the main site of that link.

I found a site with the math.object and many other scripts. I may have to learn JS. I do have a question as far as where I can insert the code. If I set up a script to run like you say. Can I insert it in the Style tag under the body property as a value. In other words ti might look like this:
<style> body background: <script>bgcolor .js</script>; </style>
I know that this code is not exactly correct, but will this work is the file is called correctly.

No that's incorrect. See this link which describes where to put your Javascript scripts.

There is a setting in IE for "Print background colors and images."
I've noticed that without checking this option, a web page will print CSS
lines between table rows, but a background color of say the header won't.
The below style will display the borders in print preview, but won't display
the background color.
Does anyone know if it's possible to force background CSS or HTML colors to

I read the faq, and it mentions that IE 4 on windows requires setting a
printing option to allow background colors to be printed.
Things change, life goes on, other browsers come into existence....
So, is there a way in CSS to say "Yeah, print these background colors",
without the user having to turn on an option that will then apply to all
pages printed?
Thanks,

Hi All,
I was wondering if somebody could post a few lines of code which would
produce random colors, which will be used in defining different regions
on a mesh. So in addition to having n random colors, I feel that there
should also be some condition to ensure that they aren't too similar in
appearance, given that is likely to range from 2-20 say.
Any help much appreciated,
