    Jedineka helped me solve this issue via pm
    i basically had to do this



    <span class="red">Bank</span>

    Add to your CSS at the bottom :


    .red { color: #900; }

    For the color u can change #900 to whatever colour u need.

    And if someone decides the word should be green? Or, italic in the inherited color? It is a poor practice to use a presentational token. Better, depending on structure,
    #nav span {
      color: red;
      }
    Code (markup):
    cheers,

    Pretty much what Gary said. IF you REALLY need a class on it, and can't find a REASON to say WHY it's "red", it probably shouldn't be. What makes it so special? WHY are you doing it? If you can't answer that in a word or two, you probably shouldn't be styling the element much less putting a class on it!

    Saying nonsense like 'red', 'center', 'column', or the even DUMBER idiocy of framework crap like "grid_2" or "width_6" is so presentational, you might as well go back to using FONT and CENTER tags like it's still 1997! Of course, that's why the whole "OOCSS" idiocy is such a steaming pile of manure, we need to go out and buy bibs for all the people who use it to catch the drool.
