I put this code in, but my text wont appear. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Here is the URL: www.geocities.com/fireatwillmusic/band.html . Here's the code:

<html>
<head>

<title>|FIRE:AT:WILL|||band</title>

<style type="text/css">

A:link
{ text-decoration: underline; color:#0000FF; }
A:visited
{ text-decoration: underline; color:#990099; }
A:hover
{ text-decoration: underline overline; color:#FF0000;
background-color: #000000;
}

h1 {font-family: arial; color: #FFFFFF;}
p {font-family: arial; color: #FFFFFF;}

body
{ background: #000000;
background-image: url(gasfireredone.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 50% 50%;
background-attachment: fixed;



scrollbar-face-color : #000000;
scrollbar-highlight-color : #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-3dlight-color : #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-shadow-color : #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color : #000000;
scrollbar-track-color : #000000;
scrollbar-arrow-color : #993300;
}

font-family: arial;
color: #FFFFFF ;
letter-spacing: 3pt;
font-weight: normal;
font-size: small;

</head>

<body>
<div align="center"><p>This is where I will put the separate bios, biography, and possible pictures. But I'll do that when I'm done with the rest : )</p></div>


</body>
</html>

You forgot to end with </style> ;) So your code would be

<html>
<head>

<title>|FIRE:AT:WILL|||band</title>

<style type="text/css">

A:link
{ text-decoration: underline; color:#0000FF; }
A:visited
{ text-decoration: underline; color:#990099; }
A:hover
{ text-decoration: underline overline; color:#FF0000;
background-color: #000000;
}

h1 {font-family: arial; color: #FFFFFF;}
p {font-family: arial; color: #FFFFFF;}

body
{ background: #000000;
background-image: url(gasfireredone.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 50% 50%;
background-attachment: fixed;



scrollbar-face-color : #000000;
scrollbar-highlight-color : #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-3dlight-color : #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-shadow-color : #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color : #000000;
scrollbar-track-color : #000000;
scrollbar-arrow-color : #993300;
}

font-family: arial;
color: #FFFFFF;
letter-spacing: 3pt;
font-weight: normal;
font-size: small;

<style>

</head>

<body>
<div align="center"><p>This is where I will put the separate bios, biography, and possible pictures. But I'll do that when I'm done with the rest : )</p></div>

you also have another error in your coding... in this part... the bold stuff is just out there not belonging to any section... so... take the red thing and move it to the end of "font-size: small;"

scrollbar-darkshadow-color : #000000;
scrollbar-track-color : #000000;
scrollbar-arrow-color : #993300;
}

font-family: arial;
color: #FFFFFF ;
letter-spacing: 3pt;
font-weight: normal;
font-size: small;

</style>
</head>
