Uh Jackie you did click on edit to double check that the color name inside the brackets is correct, right? i.e. you typed <color:mediumspringgreen> mediumspringgreen </color>

Stupid crossword... how can "coral" mean "soft pink"? I mean, coral (reefs?) vary in colour. And, no definition in my dictionary conforms to pink nohow! just stupid...stupid crossword... right? they got it wrong... I should complain. I should.

Remain clam, Loggie. It is all about the need for new and fetching names for lipstick.

mediumspringgreen Better than typed: copied and pasted, first into the color box, then in between the sets of brackets.
I should note, however, that it is all but impossible to insult my intelligence where anything re: computers is said.
SQUAWK! Now, it IS medium spring green! ??? I musta done something wrong the first time. Thanks, Alex.
Edit: Logwood, coral is a kind of orangey-pink.

Aha--I decided to take a look at my first mediumspringgreen post using the edit function, and discovered that that phrase had quotation marks around it, and even a space in front of the closing one; dunno how they got there, but I'll bet that's the problem.

..and different browsers appear to deal with these extraneous characters differently. I have both IE and firefox open to your post right now; firefox is definitely greenish and IE is real red.

Jackie's mediumspringgreen is the only red one of the bunch that I see. Must not be ripe yet.
