How do I change the Background color of a page from a JavaScript function?

[Tony Olsen]

I tried:

document.Body.bgcolor = "#FF00FF";
document.Body.bgcolor = "FF00FF";
document.TitleText.style.color = RGBString;
document.TitleText.style.color = "red";
BodyDiv.bgcolor.value = "red";
BodyDiv.backgroundcolor = "#" + RGBString;
Body.bgcolor = "darkgreen";
document.bgcolor = "red";
document.Body.style = "color : red";

and many other combinations, but nothing works. In fact, some combinations
managed to make my IE 6.0 crash.

Does anyone know how to do this? More specifically, has anyone succesfully
done this before?

Thanks in advance,

So it would seem.

Many, many, many times.

BTW, please ask Javascript questions in the appropriate group, which this is
not.
