Formatting, CSS, Font colors

    This is probably a newbie question, but how can I control the colors for text that the ad_network displays on my site. Currently, the output sets the regular text to what ever the CSS file is setup for, but then specifies a gray background (CCCCCC). I can change this with some Replace() so that the text shows up (as the CSS file specified text to also be CCCCCC) but I'm not sure if this would be breaking the rules...

    Guidance is appreciated.

    Thanks for everything!

    Please don't alter the output of the ad code itself... It ends up just causing support issues and problems when they can't validate any longer.

    A better option would be to include the ads within <span> tags that you define the class or style for.

    I don't seem to understand how to use span or something. When I wrap the banners in <span class> tags, the banner starts a new CSS entity which overrides any thing I have in the <span>, and without changing my overall CSS formatting, I cannot alter the font color within the banner.

    If I could just see an example =)

    Thank you!
