Change it to visable.

CODE

table.blogbody {
background-color: black;
width:560;
font: 12pt papyrus #00db24;
text-align: justify;
padding: 0px;
margin-top: 2px;
}

Change the color in Look&Feel then, that's probably what's causing it. Happens to me a lot.

[add1cted2f1re]

why is that? thats so retarded...


thanks reiri

'cause it uses the proper stylesheet in the header before the custom one. Little nuances kill us all.
