Stylesheet generates background color only when not in radiant

The following css code when embedded in a layout works and generates a
colored background (by repeating the 1 pixel wide gif).

The css also works if a style.css file is external to radiant.

However, it does not work properly if the css is created as a radiant page
with a slug of style.css and referenced by a href="/style.css" link in the
layout.

Is this a known radiant bug or is this my problem?

If you're going to go the styles.css route, make sure to create a  
layout specifically for stylesheets and give it a mime type of text/
css, otherwise it will render it as HTML.

In that layout, simply put <r:content/>.

Josh

Also, there should be no reason to repeat a 1px square image as a  
background.  Just use a background color.

Actually, I was imprecise and not clear.  The gif is 1x800 pixels and the
pixel color varies as it goes down the page.
