Using a CDE-like desktop color scheme (light text color, dark background),
html docs included in the version 3.6 package of POV-Ray are not completely
readable as the doc background color is light, too.
Using an entry "color: #0000a0 ;" in the body section of povray35.css would
be a remedy without affecting standard desktop color schemes (dark text,
light background).

You can of course change the style sheet to fit your desktop scheme.
Forcing a default blue text color does not seem a good idea to me
though. A default black would be possible - this is the default of most
browsers anyway, but this would reduce flexibility for the user (who no
more could affect it by changing his browser settings).

I have a moto concerning the setting of colours: you set all of them or
you set none. You should never set only the background colour, or only
the text colour.

The background color is set to white for a reason but there isn't any
good reason to force a certain text color.

If the user have set his display to white on black (windows preset:
black high contrast), you just made the text invisible: white on white.
THATS an exellent reason to also set the text colour.

That is a user problem then. If you insist on inverting your screen, invert
it. The POV-Ray documentation does nothing proper websites do not do
anyway, thus if you insist on black background with white text you have to
set your browser to override website settings anyway. We cannot suit the
five people who insist on such a color scheme if there are five thousand
people who do not have such odd ideas about colors and would be in trouble
if we did something like you suggest.

You didn't read all he said: he said to either specify *both* a
background and a foreground or neither. In either case it will work
well no matter what the specific user configuration so you can
satisfy both "the five people who insist on such a color scheme" and
the "five thousand people who do not have such odd ideas about
colors" and won't be in trouble if you do what he suggests.

Exactly what I said. Whenever you set only one colour, you're asking for
trouble. BTW, such a colour sheme is one of the *stock* out of the box,
shemes provided by m$ windows since W95, at least!!! Black background is
great if you are stuck with some crapy old monitor that can't go over 50
Hz or 80 Hz interlaced (80 half screens/s.), as my first one. It greatly
reduce the flicker, with a white background, you need 70 Hz or more to
get rid of flickering.

Tell that to Mosaic and Netscape!

Using Netscape for ages, now Mozilla/FireFox and Mozilla Thunderbird to
compose this. I can set background to black and text to white (or just
about any imaginable colours combo) in windows and everything displays
correctly, unless the page set ONLY text colour or ONLY background colour.
