Kelly,

Thanks for the try but the problem is not with any editor, WYSIWG or
otherwise. Maybe I mislead you. I am using a program called Arles Digital
Dutch to create my photo galleries but it is the same problem with Front
Page or with Dreamweaver to build the HTML pages.

My problem is a Windows XP color display problem. Any color text I create
(designate or change colors) usually ends up showing up as BLACK text on my
computer but not on other computers. To see what I am talking about, click
on www.tom-chris.com and notice the color of the text. What color is the
"Brown Family Web Site?" On my laptop, it shows up as black. I believe it
showed up as RED on the last computer I checked. I guess I have designated
it as RED but I can't see it on my machine.
