Preserved Topic: Table cell background color (Page 1 of 1)

I am working on my newest site, and i am looking to make changing the colors of the site fairly simple. One of the methods that i chose was to use CSS. I am having some trouble changing the background color of a cell in the table. below i have put the code i am using in both the .css file and in my html. I appreciate your help.

------
css code
------
.newshead {
background-color : #F5DEB3;
font-size : 4pt;
font-weight : bold;
font-family : verdanda;
color : #000000;

------
html code
------
<td class\"newshead\">
<b>$title</b>
</td>

-------
P.S. the reason for the varibles and the backslashes is because i am using a php script that will output this code.

<td class=\"newshead\"> (missing equals)
also:
"verdana" (not verdanda)
