title: Changing Font Color in HTML Email for AOL Mail
body: <p>EDIT: I should mention that the layout was done with tables. I've even tried styling the parent <code>&lt;td&gt;</code> element to get the desired appearance. Still, no bananas.</p>
  
  <p>How do you change the font color of text in an HTML email in AOL's client?</p>
  
  <p>I've tried the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;td&gt;
  &lt;span style="color:#FFFFFF;"&gt;My Text&lt;/span&gt;
  &lt;/td&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>After some suggestions from the community, I've also tried the following approach:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;td&gt;
  &lt;font color="white"&gt;My Text&lt;/font&gt;
  &lt;/td&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Unfortunately, the text color doesn't change at all. In fact, when viewing the computed styles in Firebug, it doesn't show <em>any</em> color being applied to the element.</p>
  
  <p>I'd expect this to work since all other inline styles work fine and the email is rendered beautifully in every other major client. </p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for your help.</p>
