Hello!

I was given the following code for my newsbar but I'm not sure how to change the text color (I know how to change the background color, but don't know how to change the text color from black to red).

Here is the code:

<style type="text/css">
.newsbar {
	background: #7FA5FF;
	border-top: 2px solid #00209E;
	border-bottom: 2px solid #00209E;
	text-align: center;
        text-color: #00209E;
	margin: 10px auto;
	padding: 5px 20px;
	font-weight: bold;
}
</style>

change the values of

 text-color: #00209E;

to change text color use http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_colors.asp for getting code of each color

thanks!

Remove the non breaking spaces.  

Replace your code with this =)

.newsbar {
    background: #7FA5FF;
    border: 2px solid #FF0000;
    text-align: center;
    text-color: #FF0000;
    margin: 10px auto;
    padding: 5px 20px;
    font-weight: bold;
}
