Does any validator, flag this?

Since we have the ability to specify colors as a hexadecimal number, an RGB value, or a color
name.

FP should flag it the same way it does other invalid HTML, no?

This is not something that any version of FP creates, but if you were to run a validator, then
I agree it should be flagged.

Yes, it is. It should be flagged as what it is - invalid HTML. The page will fail
validation.

No, it is not an FP issue.

I agree with you on all 3; however, I also agree with Murray
in the fact that just because IE can do it doesn't mean it
should.

What we can all agree on is the problem, but is it an FP
issue at all?
