Catty's trying to learn HTML, but I'm having a problem with colors. Could someone check my code and tell me what I'm doing wrong? (parens have been substituted for angle brackets):

(basefont=7)(font="Ariel 14" font color="#338666") NOW, you don't even have to open an account!(basefont=6)(/i) - just type in your credit card information.

Thanks for any help.

Catty

Hey catty! Good for you! You always seem to be learning something.

Take a look at this stuff...

Here's a comprehensive tutorial for HTML Beginners.
And here's the specific page that deals with text color.
There's a practice window at the bottom, too!

Hi Catty:
Here's you code changed around to what I think you're
trying to do.
That practice window that MsSueM found is real handy for
trying out new stuff.

Hope that helps.

Not being a code fan will this work the same as your version?
You beaten me to there Catty! We posted within minutes of each other1

Mike, I think that is essentially the same code I got from bedstor's link. It works great, thank you. I'm sure this thread will be helpful for others in future.

MsSueM, that is the best HTML tutorial I've ever seen. Thank you so much!
