In the past, I have noticed that when I set a background colour of a page/div/paragraph to the same hex value as that used in a graphic used in the same area, so as to give a fake transparent background effect, the colour of the page back ground was different to the graphic...

Are you run in 16 bit or 32 for display?

Are you using websafe colours? If not the browser will change them to the closest websafe alternative by creating a dithered image from the websafe palette. This can make noticeable changes to solid areas of colour and be a real pain.
