I have a page that works fine in most browsers(Safari, FF, Chrome, IE9) but on IE8 it won't show the body background color. It shows the Body bgcolor as white. In the Developer Tools, I see that it is overriding all the CSS and getting some background-color:#fff from somewhere.
I have my scripts (jquery 1.6.2) just before the closing tag as is suggested on the HTML5 Boilerplate (html5boilerpate.com) – not sure if not having the scripts in the head section causes this behaviour?
Anyone any ideas ? This is really weird.

A couple things to try.
!important
<style/>
blocks as they could be causing trouble and not show up in the style tab as a specific css file.body{background-color:#e6e6e6}
body{background-color:#e6e6e6 !important}
.
