I may be over the hill, but it seems that certain websites are really tough to read. Not the size of the typeface as much as the colors used.

Would some of you guys please take a look at this page:

https://www.cpbn.org/cptv-programming-schedule

To me the important stuff - the hourly TV schedule halfway down the page - is in light blue or light grey typeface.

Is it just me? or is it unnecessarily difficult to read that webpage?

Thanks.
Tom
 
May be your monitor, Tom. Looks pretty clear to me. Title's are in light blue, and the descriptions are grey.
 
Although I can read it Tom I think it's a poor choice of color (light grey) to use.
 
Mine is fine, however, I know of which you speak. Sometimes you cannot either make it out or see it at all.
Start in the lower right corner of the box, hold the left click button down on your rodent, and scroll diagonally to the upper left.
Let go and read!

When I report some SPAM, the header details appear to be not there, being set at a neutral colour of some sort. I highlight, and change the colour before sending.
 
Thanks gentlemen.

If anyone else suffers from the "color" problem, I stumbled on an improvement:

In my browser (Firefox) I chose Edit/Preferences/Content. Then hit the Colors button, and un-checked "Allow pages to choose their own colors". Then chose my new text and background colors. Now my "default" colors are white background, black text.

Not perfect, but much better than before.

Yup, ya found it... browsers don't always treat pages the way they were intended, the "preferences" can be set locally to make up for the misinterperetations.

Can we all see: <span style="color: #FFFFFF">the seekret message without a decoder ring?</span> :devilgrin:
