Click to See Complete Forum and Search --> : Text in table appears white after hitting the Enter Button

I am working on a page whereas I have a table and some text in it. All appears fine..the text is in black, as it should be but when I hit the Enter Button to make a new paragraph the text turns white!

The page properties indicate the text is set to black so I had to use tags in the table to correct this problem..starnge thing is that I have another page with a table and lots of text and even with new paragraphs, the text remains black.

Any ideas as to why this is?

How about a link or code?

Sounds like your editor has a default text color setting of white. Hitting 'enter' closes the paragraph (which has been designated manually(?) as black), and the next one gets the default color.
Just a guess.

More info?

This is the code as it is right now..as you can see the text color is set for black. If the text is all in one block then it is black, if I ht the "Enter Button" it all turns white. No code is changed yet another page which is like similar to this has several blocks of text and the text color remains the same..maybe I will just remake the page.
