What mistake I am doing in DreamWeaver?

I am working on a new website and again having difficulties

I created a table with 3 rows, In 1st and 2nd row I inserted a color code and on the 3rd cell i inserted an image. Everything is fine but when I open the file in Firefox the first and second rows' colors are not appearing.

But in Internet Explorer everything is 100% correct. Colors are showing there.

If you don't understand me, please open the given link in Firefox and also in Internet Explorer. You will see what i m saying.

Please help me what mistake I am doing. I had this same problem when working on smartpixels but there i compromised with it because there i have a white background, but now i need colors.

Please help me.

 

Put # in front of the color codes. Like:

bgcolor="#596571"
