h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

This isn't working on my space

This text is red

Could you please direct me to the place where I could make the writing red?

Sorry for the delay in replying, but I've been away from home a couple of days.

The GuideML code you posted should work - I've just tried it myself.
You can see the result here: A21044314 and the code here: <./>test21044314</.>

No, that isn't red either it must have something to do with the settings on this pc. Never mind.

I did do 7 wonderful walks

Have you tried if viewing it in different h2g2 skins makes any difference?

<./>A21044314?skin=brunel</.>
<./>A21044314?skin=alabaster</.>
<./>A21044314?skin=classic</.>
<./>A21044314?skin=plain</.>

Oh, and which browser are you using?

I have no idea what you are talking about.

Skin or browser?

For the h2g2 skins, I gave links.

Examples of browsers: Internet Explorer, Opera, Firefox, Mozilla, Netscape...

Sorry to be so thick I am not used to the terminology I am using Internet Explorer

Well, so am I... hm...

Have you tried all the four links I gave in posting no. 5? Do you see the red text in any of the links?

Nope, 'this text is red' is black in all four cases.
The goo page doesn't look navy blue either, like it used to on the Dell computer I used a few years ago (it is no longer with me now I left it behind). This one is a Fujitsu Siemens. Would that be what is causing the difference?

Perhaps it is just a 'glich' in the system?

Hang on, I'll see if I can get hold of someone more computer savvy than myself...

On a page about web safe colours (A286274) it has examples of the colours from about half way down. Can you see any of the colours shown there? (You don't have to read the article I won't be asking questions about the content )

No I can't, but I will read it in depth and also try viewing it from another system. Thank you for your help!

Can you get any colours at all on the computer? When viewing webpages or not?

"Use the menu bar in top:
Select: Tools / Internet Options /
First == leftmost tab, in the bottom right: Accessibility
Uncheck: [ ] Ignore colors specified on WEB pages
Ok, Ok

Or go to Settings / Control Panel / Internet Options

"

Web safe colours are working where I am at the moment.
Will have to double check again later and have a go at Traveller's suggestion.

Which does mean it's something on the computer where it doesn't work. If it's not Travellers suggestion then I'm stumped!

What is the difference between 'windows' colour and 'hover' color?

I have done all of this:

Use the menu bar in top:
Select: Tools / Internet Options /
First == leftmost tab, in the bottom right: Accessibility
Uncheck: [ ] Ignore colors specified on WEB pages
Ok, Ok

and that entry still remains the same.
I can see colours in all other areas. It is just in the entries area that I don't see them.

Thank you for your help.
I'll try the second one now.
