hey, im having a ton of problems with my site. im doing a basic page with html, it has a blog box in it. the content of the blog box can be seen alonehere (http://etoile.brad.com/shout.html) and the actual page that the blog should be displayed in is here (http://etoile.brad.com/blog.html). as you can see by looking at it, this is messed up... the blog box is supposed to have content that the text is color="wheat". the background of the blog should be "lemonchiffon", the same as the page it's in. also, the size of the text in the blog box, the titles (such as "bffe*") should be font = tw cen mt, size 5, and all the other content of the box should be font = tahoma, size 1. my web host is a free one called brad.com. does anyone know whats going on? any help is much appreciated :)

1. you can't have HTML codes in your <title></title>
2. did you checked if the color names are really excisting? because i never heard of them before but that could be just me. It's better to fill in #ffffff or #000000 values (for example!)
3. Tw Cen Mt, is not really a font that is on every computer. Do you even got that font on your own computer? it's better to pick on of these for your basic font : courier, tahoma, arial, times new roman or verdana. Those fonts are on every computer and then everybody is able to see them
4. also this part should be between the <head> and </head>
<style type="text/css">a:hover{background:wheat}</style>
<style type="text/css">body{scrollbar-face-color:lemonchiffon;scrollbar-shadow-color:wheat;
scrollbar-highlight-color:wheat;scrollbar-3dlight-color:khaki;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color:lightsalmon;scrollbar-track-color:lightsteelblue;
scrollbar-arrow-color:mediumaquamarine;}</style>
