Cell Color in Tables Changes Font Color
May 27 2008, 10:15 AM EDT
HI! I found an odd problem. When I change the cell color in a cell, *sometimes* it changes the font color and sometimes it does not. Specifically, when I have a single cell table (to put a message in) and the font is black, then the color cell washes out the black to an odd greenish-gray. It does not do this on a table with multiple cells and rows, even with multiple cell colors. Any help would be appreciated!! Thanks!

The page where this is happening is: http://poundaweek.wetpaint.com/ but it is (for now) password protected, so only the wetpaint admin folks will be able to examine it.

That text is gray because it's been made a Subheading. If you change it back to Normal, it'll turn black again. Do you find this valuable?

That makes sense, and I tried that also. But, for some reason, when I change it from sub-heading to normal, it immediately changes back to sub-heading, even before I save it.

However, I figured out a work-around. I created a table below that, put in all the information I wanted and then deleted the "subheading" table.
