Many thanks for that. Actually the page that came up with white text looks OK so I'll leave it. The other one I'll change. Of course I could always do it with an image.

For those that were so helpful and obviously website gurus you might be interested in the result. As an 86 year old struggling to cope with modern technology I am baffled.
No matter what I did the text came up white. Even when I typed direct. Solved the problem by using an image.
