Thanks LennonCook,
Although I didn't understand what you said. Now I just paste the colour number from the HTML colours website in.
ALOT of browsers will have trouble with that. If you're using colour codes in HTML, always put it in the form:
"#xxxxxx" , where xxxxxx is the colour code.
Note the quotes and the # - these are necesary for it to be completely cross-browser. Some browsers will display the wrong colour, and some browsers will even crash if you do this wrong. This happens because the standards were never clear on how to handle invalid code (this has since changed, though - the standards now explicitly state that it should degrade gracefully).
