These are the conditions that must exist in order for the problem to occur: An HTML element must be using the deprecated bgcolor attribute. This will likely be a table, tr, or td element. The color must be specified using the hexadecimal short notation, i.e. #123 instead of #112233. Internet Explorer cannot read short-notation hexadecimal colors in this particular property.
