Issue/Request: 
Hi,
 
On a few of the pages I created, I made a table in the body section. For some reason this table has a yellow/orange background color. I looked though the source code for the body section and I do not see anything that would be making it this color. Is there a way that I can make it white to match the rest of the page?
 
Thank you again for all your help,
AJ

When you you have a text content you should format it by highlight the text and click the eraser button like this image:

Take a look for the page which I formatted for you when you hover the mouse it’s still keep the color because it is a table. I can take the big table off if you want and that’s will fix the problem.

Best,

This has been fixed. Keeping it in a table was the problem. I removed the formatting from the site so that it follows the standards and put the menu items in a block so that it shows up on each page. Tables should not be used for layout or formatting in the body area of the page as it affects the ability to display properly on devices other than a browser.
