To create a web page with black background and white text, if you want to
have a site that looks like a pornographer's:
body{
background-color: black;
color: white;
}

It's wise to also set the link colors now. Or you might clash with the
user stylesheet and render text invisible.
Other ways to say "black" are #000 which also comes in quite handy for
shades of gray etc. (#333, #555) or white #fff. Well that's how I
mostly do it.

If we're talking about what's wise, the OP should forget white reversed out
of black altogether.

Filth - "... right now you can enjoy 3D models of the stars." I didn't look,
of course, but I assume they're selling inflatable toys designed to look
like film personalities.
Disgusting.

Not that I'd use that color scheme. But why? If it's a hacking site or
something similar I believe it gets the point across fast, and the
contrast's also there.

How naive. Porn site'a don't actually have real flesh on them - well,
not much. Mostly just banner ads linked in a more convoluted way than a
maze in the original Adventure, with uncountable links into assorted
ploys to lure your credit card details out of you.

Reasons?
I agree it was unwise to do white-on-black before the advent of user-side
CSS - solely on an accessibility issue - but CSS2 allows the user to
override even !important author style suggestions.

Someone asked in google.public.s upport.general how to make the
background color in google.com darker and I thought one option would
be to create a style sheet and use it in Internet Explorer -> Tools ->
Internet Options -> Accessibility -> Format documents using my style
sheet, but that doesn't seem to work.
