Color Animations plugin only works on elements with background-color already set

Color Animations plugin only works on elements with background-color already set


I just spent a bit of time trying to get the Color Animations plugin
to work -- it took me a while to figure out that the plugin will
animate color only for elements that already have a CSS background-
color set (to a color value; 'transparent' or 'inherit' don't work).
Perhaps this caveat could be stated in a comment in the code, to help
others who might run into this same problem?
