How do you change text colour?

Why is it that when I post text color like yada, yada , yada, for only those three words and I go on typing like I'm doing everything following my intended color words turns to wheat color?? I only wanted to color in the three yada words.[This message has been edited by buzsaw, 12-08-2003]

Thanks much, Ned. I just learned to do colors from this thread, but forgot that.

If a reader is confused about the corrected yada post I edited the yada post to correct the colors after learning my mistake.
