Vista - Font on Button

Please have patience guys, database applications programmer just starting out
with asp.

Designing pages for my high schools using their school colors, the gray
Buttons with the Black font just not stand out well or looks bad.

One the following script how do I get the font to appear in Red?

<Input Type="Button" Value="Click To Look Up By S.A.T. Test Code"
Name="SATL" OnClick="ACQYB()">

I tried <Font="Red"> Before it and it ignored it.

Thanks in Advance

exmaple of inline styles. Watch for wrapping:

<Input style='color:red;background-color:black;font-weight:bold'
Type="Button" Value="Click To Look Up By S.A.T. Test Code" Name="SATL"
OnClick="ACQYB()">

Change to suit your taste. On colors, consider that you can use the many
HTML constants like red, green, black, white, etc. You can also use RGB
values like #FF0000. The first 2 hex digits are the red value, then green &
lastly blue. You can fine-tune these to get exactly the colors and shades
you are looking for. Below are a few links:

Thank You, Works Great!

It's not an ASP issue. It's a web design issue. You really
need to spend a little time studying CSS if you're going to
be doing webpages. I answered almost the same question
from you a couple of days ago. You apparently didn't
understand that answer but didn't ask any follow-up
questions. So now you're still trying to accomplish what you
need through HTML attributes.

With CSS you can have much better control than
with HTML attributes. HTML alone is very limited. In
fact, the FONT tag has been "deprecated" for years now
in favor of styles.

With styles you can also assign IDs and CLASSes
to page elements and assign styles to those. James
Whitlow posted a sample of inline styles. I posted
a sample of using IDs in a STYLE tag to affect any
element that has that ID. You can use a class assignment
to create a custom-designed element for reuse. In other
words, if you have 10 buttons that you want to be red
you can give them all a class assignment, like
<INPUT CLASS="RedButton"... and then assign the red to
all of them in a STYLE tag that goes in the HEAD section
of the page:

<STYLE>
..RedButton {background-color: #FF0000;}
</STYLE>

If you decide to learn about CSS you might try the
O'Reilly guide written by Eric A. Meyer. He writes clearly
and simply, while also being expert. He's also got some
online information that details more advanced CSS techniques:
