It appears to be #191970. [1] Then openend your stylesheets, and searched for #191970. Result: The stylesheet http://infoforce-services.com/css/ifsmain.css is the only place where this color is defined:
body, .generalresume_name, .generalresume_address, .generalresume_address a, .generalresume_title { color: #FFFFF0; background: #191970; /* here he is ! */ } Thus the body color { #191970 } is overruling the html color { #D2B48C }, which covers the rest of the page. The same is happening with the text color, which is not black, but the #FFFFF0 (almost white) of the ifsmain.css. * Proving: as soon as you have more paragraphs in the body, the bar color is stretching with the used part of the body: all lines! See testpage <http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/test-infoforce.htm>. Greetings, francky [1] With my eyes I see the red padding as a kind of dark blue padding, but that doesn't matter for the story. ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
