Background color not showing in Firefox or Safari

Hi,
I'm using NetObjects Fusion 8 to create a simple, 6-page web-site.
I can't get my overall background color to show in Firefox or Safari, even though I've added it to the CSS stylesheets -- and I can't find anywhere else in the Fusion HTML that's over-riding the CSS settings.
If someone is willing to take a look at my site's code, please tell me how best to "package" it for uploading here.
Thanks in advance.

The inline style overrides the body elements in the CSS.

Shonks is right.

How about taking out the background-color: transparent;

It seems to fix it.

The transparent setting is done somewhere in Fusion (I can't find where), and it won't let me change that part of the auto-generated html directly.  I just tried inserting background-color: #99ccff; in the part of the Body tag where Fusion allows me to edit, but Fusion just RETAINS the "transparent" setting and ADDS my insertion -- with no change to the appearance of the site.
So I need to find out where Fusion gets the transparent setting (it's not in the css files) and/or how to change it in the "protected" area of the auto-generated html.
PS: Thanks, Shonk, for your help!
You will have to edit the pagee in NetObjects. There should be a place to select edit page .

Kindly try and let us know what happens eventually

Hi Shonk & MyDerrick,
I had to edit the auto-generated html in FrontPage, then FTP the files to the site host -- without opening the site in Fusion again (because Fusion ignores my edits to its auto-generated html).
So it's an annoying but simple workaround that I'll have to do each time I change the site.
Lesson learned: check the auto-generated html, not only the css files (which is what I did originally).
Many thanks to you both!
Glad you got it sorted.
