stylesheet trouble

[sjb]

ok on my site...i have places where i have text in <p> </p> tags and the font isnt showing as the colour that i put but as black...even without the tags it makes no difference

here's my code

<style type="text/css">

A:link
{ text-decoration: none; color:#33CCFF; }
A:visited
{ text-decoration: none; color:#cc66cc; }
A:active
{ text-decoration: none; color:#FF9933; }
A:hover
{ text-decoration: none; color:#FF0000;

cursor: auto}

body 
{ background-color: #000000; 
background-repeat: repeat;
background-attachment: scroll;

font-family: Times New Roman;
font-color: #ffffff; 
letter-spacing: 0pt;
font-weight: normal;
font-size: 12pt;


scrollbar-face-color : #CC3333; 
scrollbar-base-color : #CC3333;
scrollbar-highlight-color : #FFFFFF; 
scrollbar-3dlight-color : #FFFFCC; 
scrollbar-shadow-color : #000066; 
scrollbar-darkshadow-color : #000000;
scrollbar-track-color : #CC0033; 
scrollbar-arrow-color : #000033;

margin-top: 0;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: 0; 
padding-top: 0;
padding-bottom: 0;
padding-left: 0;
padding-right: 0; 
}


td
{ font-family: Times New Roman
color: #ffffff; }

input, textarea
{ background: #ffffff;
font-family: Times New Roman;
color: #000000; 
}

</style>

why is the text coming out as black and not white...the only way i can get it to work is by using
p {font-family: Times New Roman;
color: #FFFFFF;}
in the code...is there any alternatives...incase i forget to put the <p> tags around text.

Change font-color: #ffffff; to color: #ffffff; in the body portion of your CSS and see if it works.
