Table Background-Color Not Working With Firefox !

[lovely_angel_for_you]

I have created an html page where I am giving the background color to
Table and to Cell using CSS. The background-color comes perfectly
alright in IE but in Firefox it is not displayed at all. Please help.

You can check the page here:

The code used is:

Code in HTML Pages

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="80%" class="one">

<td width="100%" class="one">

Code In CSS

.one{background-color=#BF3A59;}

Please guide me to get this thing going.

Waiting for your replies.

Love
Lovely

I am having the same problem although I am not using CSS simply the table bground tag. Any ideas?

Well, CSS would be the preferred method, but <table bgcolor="#ff000"> should work. Replace the ff000 with whatever hex value you want.

(By the way, is bground even a valid attribute? Don't believe it is . . . )

I found that it works fine if you include the # in front of the color code i.e. bgcolor = "#A40000".

I am sure this is the html standard but I didn't know that before...

Have a great day.

IF your doctype puts firefox into standards mode, all of your color hex-codes MUST have the # in front of them.

bgcolor is not a valid tag according to the HTML 4.01 standard, but it works in most browsers.

Nope

body background
and bgcolor are
