This code is using a 'short-hand' version of the background rule.
See: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_background.asp or http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/colors.html
Scroll down a few pages to the Short-hand section.

background: transparent;

On Obama's web site www dot barackobama dot com, if you look at the CSS, there is usage of the background declaration. My question is they are using it like this:

Background: transparent;

Background: transparent url (images/sample.jpg etc...);

What exactly is this? I looked on w3schools because I was only aware of background-color: transparent;, and sure enough, there is no mention of the above mentioned declaration.

Does anyone have any idea how this is used or recognized?

Thanks!
