Text color not changing

[Jwynne]

So I set up a web page with text and I want to change the text color now. But everytime I update the page it wont update the changes to the text. It also wont change the background color. Actually I cant even change the graphics. Why is my page not updating. Also if I test in browser it works fine.

Are you sure you have the right page open? Are you trying to see it locally (C:/site/site.html) or on the internet(http://mysite.com)?

I have the right page and I checked it on both. Locally the page is how I want it, but it wont change to the live online page.

Check your Css settings, maybe theire overiding the manual input? Just a hunch, in the beginning CSS style sheets threw me off a bit aswell. Just a guess again since your problem seems a little weird after all it should change color if you applied it and updated correctly on your webspace. Check you CSS settings, i would say.

If the file works fine on your local computer but not on your remote site, then chances are its one of two things...

1) Are you uploading it to the correct place? The default for most sites would be "index.html" or "default.html" (if you're using PHP then "index.php", etc.) Make sure you're not uploading "index.htm" or something like that - because technically they are two seperate files. If you log in via FTP, you should only have one "index" or "default" file. And you should have one or the other...not "index" and "default".

2) Make sure your browser is not caching the file. Depending on your browser settings, it may be caching the file and not showing updates. To resolve this, simply clean out your temporary internet files under Tools > (IE-only)Internet Options.

Lastly, if you're still having problems then please give a little more insight into your problem. A screenshot of your web server (login via FTP and take a screenshot of your folder structure) as well as your local folder structure would help.
