The effect of this in the older systems is often visible as a dithering of colors as the browser tries to approximate the true color. To cope with this, these browsers make do with colors from a fixed color palette.

This is not a big problem nowadays since almost all older computers have been replaced by newer models. However, to be totally safe, you could use Web safe colors.

All one has to do is code a call to this address to get the outer ip-address in plain text.

Many of this kind of simple scripts/tools do the mistake of embedding the ip-address in HTML which just makes it harder to read/parse for a calling application. This tool, however, does not. Its output is plain text.
