I am so annoyed and confused right now. I've looked for why this isn't working but can't figure out a reason from searching the web/these foruns.
I'm taking an intro to html/css class and doing an assignment for it (I am looking into getting into the web design field after college, this isn't just homework help ;D)
I can not get the body colors to apply or the footer colors to apply. I don't know why. Please look at my code and let me know why it's not working. I'm sure I did something stupid. Also, if you see any other potential problems with my code let me know, looking for tips and tricks with anything!
I did run it through the WC3 validator and it says no errors
This is the CSS code.
"pacific.css"
Code:
<style>
body { background-color: #111111;
color: #666666; }
h1 { background-color: #000033;
color: #FFFFFF;}
h2 { color: #3399CC;}
#nav { background-color: #90C7E3; }
#footer { color: #666666; }
.companyname { color: #000033;}
</style>
This is the html web page code it applying to
Code:
