how to change the background on the left module? Options

[photoboothromanc...]

Hey... I just made a layout, and everything is working, except that I cannot seem to change the background and font colors of the left module (that I moved to the right). I want the background to be #E2898B and the text to be #8E2E2E, but for some reason, they both remain white. I'm not sure if I'm missing something in the code or if I just made a silly error... Could someone please help me? Here is my code.

In Custom Header:

<style type="text/css">
table.header { width: 598px; }
table.navigation { width: 598px; border: none; }
table.footer { width: 598px; border: none; }
table.main { width: 598px; border: none; }
table.left { width: 180px; border: 3px dashed
#E2898B; background-color: #8E2E2E; }
table.right { width: 418; border: 3px dashed
#E2898B; background-color: #8E2E2E; font-family:arial; color: E2898B; font-size:
8pt }

So, hopefully you geniuses out there could easily spot the error and help me out. I appreciate you even taking the time to read this. Thanks. And I attached a screenshot so you can have a better understanding of my problem.
