The idea is there but no color showed up. I changed it slightly to be striped and put in the hash for the hex# but it is still all in white
[column-half-1 background=”#fcfcfc”]
First column of content colour
[/column-half-1]
[column-half-2 background = “#fcfcfc”]
Second column of content colour same
[/column-half-2]
[column-half-1]
First column of content no colour
[/column-half-1]
[column-half-2]
Second column of content no colour
[/column-half-2]
[column-half-1 background=”#fcfcfc”]
content colour again
[/column-half-1]
[column-half-2 background = “#fcfcfc”]
colour again
[/column-half-2]
Thanks so much this will work well if I can get the syntax for a background color to work….
