JSF components reflect styles correctly when the style is set on the component, but not when the style is inherited from the page body. In Visual Web Pack, if the pre-defined body color attribute is changed in the stylesheet, refreshing a page in the Designer shows the color change in components as it should. But in some browsers, deployed applications do not show the change correctly. This is a browser issue. VWP appears to work correctly.

Workaround: If an attribute is not inherited properly, then set it at the component level.
