Footer text color won't change

[longhorn1999]

Hi everyone,

 

Well I seem to have messed up my footer in the process of fixing my header. For whatever reason my footer was full of class=headerNavigation. Everything was white text on a blue background. But when I changed the header style, I had to change the footer entries to class=footer (as it should've always been) to keep white text on a blue background.

 

TR.footer {
 background: #072B8A;
}

TD.footer {
 font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
 font-size: 10px;
 background: #072B8A;
 color: #ffffff;
 font-weight : bold;
 text-align: center;
}

TD.smallText, SPAN.smallText, P.smallText {
 font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
 font-size: 10px;
}

 

<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1">
 <tr class="footer">
   <td class="footer">  </td>
   <td align="middle" class="footer"><a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US); ?>" class="footer"><?php echo BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT; ?></a>  |  <a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_CONDITIONS); ?>" class="footer"><?php echo BOX_INFORMATION_CONDITIONS; ?></a>  |  <a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRIVACY); ?>" class="footer"><?php echo BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY; ?></a>  |  <a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHIPPING);?>" class="footer"><?php echo BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING; ?></a>  |  <a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_SITEMAP_SEO); ?>" class="footer"><?php echo BOX_INFORMATION_SITEMAP_SEO; ?></a>   </td>
 </tr>
</table>
<br>
<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

 

 

But even though to my untrained eye everything in the stylesheet as well as the relevant portion of footer.php looks ok, the text font color doesn't change when I edit it. But if edit the background color in TD.footer, that works. The text color is staying black no matter what I do. But oddly enough the white dividers are white like I want the text color to be. Any ideas as to what might be overriding these settings? Or perhaps (hopefully) I just have some small syntax error somewhere?

Ok I figured it out. I just had to change 'TD.footer' in stylesheet.css to '.footer'.
