Justin,
Instead of using color: red try using a color number instead, like this:
SPAN.spansmallred {
font-size: 10 px;
color: #FF2720;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: none;
font-family: helvetica,arial,adobe-helvetica,tahoma,"ms sans serif","ms
serif",serif;
}
I use this in a separate style sheet and include a call to it at the top of
the page, like this:
<HEAD>
<link rel=stylestheet type="text/css" href="styles.css">
</HEAD>
Then I call the style like this: <p class="ptext">The quick <span
class="spansmallred">red</span> fox...</p>
I use the same basic style sheet for all my websites, although I rename it
for each website and add any new styles as needed. Notice that I have
included a font list that includes fonts commonly used in M$, Mac and Linux.
That way, your web pages will display well in any O/S.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!
Marc
