Change from gradient background on fly in an HTA

[XP]

In an HTA I have the following CSS which initially sets up a gradient
background like so:

body
{
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Gradient(GradientType=1,
StartColorStr='#66594C', endColorStr='#69999C');
}

I wanted to be able for the user to change the background to a solid color
on the fly, but the following fails if the gradient is loaded:

document.body.bgcolor = myColor

How can I over ride the gradient and change background colors on the fly?
