There is no "backgroundColor" in css. Even if there was, it would be:

.sample { backgroundColor:white; }

<div class="sample">

The above advice is wrong [as usual].

Ike, in your css:

..sample { color: black; background: white; }

In the HTML:

<div class="sample">
[other stuff here]
</div>

Perhaps if you explained a bit more about what you wanted to do, and
provided a URL to what you already have?

I agree there is no backgroundColor but according to W3C there is
a background-color. I'm getting this from

http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/colors.html#background-properties

From what I read, it's part of CSS Level 2.

Am I wrong??

Bullis was wrong - way off the mark.

Not entirely correct. In that case, it would be:

<div style="background-color: white">

and:

..sample { background-color: white; }

<div class="sample">

Thanks Hywel, I didn't think he was correct.
