I want to display the background color in the content editing area to be the same as it is on the web page. Unfortunately, ckeditor uses the background (both background-color and background-image) that is defined for the body tag in the web page stylesheet.
While this may be the same, you can imagine what happens if the body background-color is white and the web page area containing text is black with white text!
This should be real easy - just set the style class for the editor's content editing area when calling the editor. That would allow me to set the background color whenever the the editor is opened - which might be in multiple places within the web page (eg a side menu bar, the main content area, or in a footer).
Each of these places might have a different background color and I want the user to see exactly what he would see on the finished web page.
Wicktor, is there a way to do this? If not, why not?

Re: Set background color of the content editing area
Best solution would be, to use the stylesheet from the webpage.
Is this possible?
