Background Color for Blog Entry Options

[Anatole]

Hey --

I have a blue background for the entries on my blog. I want to have an entry with a black background. I tried making the background black by using the fill color function, but while it made the entry have a black background, it left the area around the outside (where the date, e-props, and comments are located) blue.

How do I change that outside area to be black, just for the one entry... and make the text (e-props, date) be white just for that one entry and not the whole blog.

The entry is private... so you won't be able to see exactly what I mean about the trim still being blue, but my general layout is on Anatole's Penthouse.

Thanks.

The code doesn't seem to work for the background color. I already have it posted as a private entry so I could see what it would look like... I have gone in an tried to change it by adding the code in through the html edit function, but after I submit the change, nothing happens to the post and the code isn't listed when I look up the html in the post.


Am I doing this right?
