OK, I posted in a hurry earlier before I went to work, knowing the was something funny about Firefox. This is one instance of IE getting it so right and Moz so wrong.

For x.style.backgroundColor , FF returns rgb(r, g, b) , whereas IE returns the far more useful (99% of the time) #rrggbb . I think IE 7/8 will be OK but you had better test them.

Here's some better code - tested in IE6, and latest FF / Opera

Opera fails to vertical-align button text correctly - but that's to do with Opera's CSS/rendering engine not the javascript.
