#FFCC66 Color does not Exist?

[ClulessChris]

When validating my css I'm told that the color #FFCC66 does not exist. This is despite the color working fine in IE, Firefox, Opera, And Safari. Should I be conserned, or can I ignore this?

Chris, can you post the rest of your CSS, #ffcc66 is a valid colour.

   	left : 150px; 
   	position : absolute; 
   	z-index : 90; 
   	visibility : hidden; 
   	}

I intend to split this down creating a main.css (common to all pages) and other css for individual pages.

This is my first venture into the world of css. It's been fun so far. : )

It isn't saying the color is invalid, it's saying the [!]layer-background-color[/!] property isn't a valid property.

Chris, maybe someelse will chip in here but I dont think "layer-background-color" is valid anymore (sorry, "layer-background-color" is casuing the error not your colour options!).

Nick

where would we be without rhetorical questions...

 

[ClulessChris]

Opps, Sorry I misread the error.
Would I be correct in thinking that background-color is doing the job and layer-background-color can be deleted then?

[ca8msm]

I would expect so, yes.
