Firefox manages colors differently than other browsers.

I'm a web developer, and my client doesn't want to use a background image if it doesn't fade cleanly into the background color on all browsers. Some versions of Firefox seem to impose a color profile while others don't.

Is there a developer-side color-profile fix? Does anyone know of any resources that can show what versions perform correctly/incorrectly?

Probably a problem with ICC version 4 color profiles.

See https://developer.mozilla.org/En/ICC_color_correction_in_Firefox

Caveats: The new QCMS color management system introduced in Firefox 3.5 currently only supports ICC version 2 color profiles, not version 4.

Hi cor-el, Thanks for the sites about color management. They were very informative on what the problem is. However, I'm still left with the problem at hand. I'm looking for a solution to show my client that they really shouldn't worry about the color management issue. Does anyone have A) statistics on how many viewers will likely experience problems with the color management, or B) means of ensuring that no one will experience problems?

Thanks.
