Hello,

In Options -> Content -> Fonts and Colors -> Colors > "Background Color" you can set the color of a blank page.

However, this does not affect the background color of a page If you open a link in a new tab.

(Try "Learn More" in about:privatebrowsing).


I'd be glad if you could refer me to the relevant code in the source files.

Thank you.

The relevant code is in chrome\browser\content\browser\tabbrowser.css.

   .tabbrowser-tabbox {
     -moz-binding: url("chrome://browser/content/tabbrowser.xml#tabbrowser-tabbox");
   /*
     background: Menu;
     color: MenuText;
    */
   }

Best regards.
