Hi all,

 

I have problem with my css.

 

CSS Code:

.footer{font:bold 11px/12px Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#fff}

 

Above is my css style. When I m valid it in W3C CSS Validator, with PROFILE: CSS level 3. It show's warning "You have no background-color set (or background-color is set to transparent) but you have set a color. Make sure that cascading of colors keeps the text reasonably legible." (NOTE:There is no background in this css)

 

Can anyone solve this problem and give me guidence what I have to do int this case.

 

Thanking your help in advance.

Have you got a link?

"You have no background-color set (or background-color is set to transparent) but you have set a color. Make sure that cascading of colors keeps the text reasonably legible."

 

What this is saying is that you haven't set a background colour but you have set a text colour. So if your footer just happened to be displayed on top of something else that was white, or your page background was white, then you wouldn't see the text.

 

This is a WARNING though and not an ERROR. It's simply suggesting that if you wanted to redesign your site at any point and you decided to have #fff as your background colour then you wouldn't be able to see the text.

 

If you want to get rid of the warning you'll need to set a background color for the footer, just match it to the rest of your site.

 

So...for example.

 

.footer{
font:bold 11px/12px Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
background-color:#000; 
color:#fff;}

 

Hope that helps.
