I made a web page that looks fine (the way it's supposed to) in IE, but Mozilla Firefox shows the font color as black even though according to the code it's not.
Any idea what the problem might be?

Umm, do you suppose that we're psychic? A URL would help. :)

The color attribute in css is valid in all browsers, and so is the tag <font>. Unless you provide a URL (as mwinter said), I don't see why it would be.

Well, the text:
EVK - EVKN 2006
At the very bottom is black in FF and some other, much lighter color in IE. Try:
<td align=left class="text" valign=bottom>
<font size=-2><a href="mailto: benzin@hot.ee">Lehekülje haldaja</a><br>
EVK - EVKN 2006</font>
</td>

Hexadecimal colour codes, in both HTML and CSS, are required to start with a hash (#) character. When you add that, you'll also need to quote the attribute values (text="#ffcc00", not text=#ffcc00).
On the subject of CSS, you really should avoid presentational elements (like font, layout tables, center, etc.) and attributes (align, text, bgcolor, border, etc.). Use CSS instead.

Hi all,
I am also experiencing Firfox font color weirdness. I have a style called "List_Headers" set up in a CSS. I have applied the style to the relevant headings 6 times on the same page.
http://www.scca-online.org/About_Us/About_Us_Page.htm
The code is identical for all 6, e.g.,
<p class="List_Headers">TEXT TEXT</p>
The font color for the style is a maroon. All 6 show up just fine on Explorer. In Firefox 5 show up in the correct color and one "SCCA ADMINISTRATION" renders in black. It is driving me crazy (crazier?).

I agree with your but some how, It's not possible because any CSS has unique code for any tags and the problems is different in font <font>tag in fontcolor in Firefox.Please you check twice.

Yes, you would think it is "impossible," but there it is "big as life and twice as ugly." That is why it's driving me nuts. :confused:
Having now done some looking around the net this issue seems to recur with some frequency in Firefox. Makes me wonder if there isn't a bug somewhere.

Finally got it solved, but alas I am not sure which of several things I did was the one that worked.
