Uh, you could fix that with CSS *or* valid markup :-)

<snippet>
<style>
body {
      background: URL(img/back.png) fixed no-repeat 100% 100%;
}
</STYLE>

<body bgcolor=CCCCCC text=000000>
</snippet>

That last line would work if it were
	<body bgcolor="#cccccc" text="#000000">
but that's so 20th Century --

Since you're already using CSS to set a background image, why not
just add the color to it (and add the text color)?

  background: #cccccc url("img/back.png") fixed no-repeat 100% 100%;
  color: #000000;
