Re: Background in css gives warning

Transparent means that you accept that whatever the cascade happens to
assign as value to the parent element's background property this time
will appear as the background.

If you control all of the HTML, then specifying something like:

STRONG {
color: red;
background: transparent;
}

in CSS might make sense, because you may know that you'll only ever use
<strong> within <div id="content"> which has an off-white background.

But if there are multiple markup authors, then "background:transparent"
might be almost as useless as not specifying a background at all.
