This has me totally stumped, I've been making websites for ages, and all of the suddenly the color red, or #FF0000 specifically won't show up in my inline frames! Any other variation of red is fine, but for some reason that particular one won't. What's the problem?

Here's my test page. I changed most of the text in the iframe to the color I'm talking about.

change html of the page that opens inside the iframe to this:

<HTML><HEAD>
<TITLE>who says all good things must come to an end?</TITLE>
<style type="text/css">
<--
A:link {text-decoration: none; color:#66FFFF; cursor:crosshair}
A:visited {text-decoration: none; color:#0099FF; cursor:crosshair}
A:active {text-decoration: none; color:#CCFFFF; cursor:crosshair}
A:hover {text-decoration: underline overline; color: "#00CCFF"; cursor:crosshair}
-->
</style>
</HEAD>
<BODY text="#33CCFF" bgcolor="#000000" link="#0000EE" vlink="#551A8B" alink="#FF0000">

Hi, and welcome to the totally redone FFF! I thought I would never redo the layout, 'cause, you know, it's looked the same way for yeeeeeeeeeeeeeears now. But it really needed a facelift.

Nope, still having the problem. Thanks for your help, though.

are you sure it's not your own browser?
because i see the red text just fine ..

also the html is still the same :S you do need to change it, even if it doesn't fix your problem because the links aren't colored here etc, because the css is in the wrong order on the page. I fixed that all in the code i gave you

Love,
