The same color as what? What is the error you are getting?

 

Your use of CSS here is very inefficient. It basically goes against the whole idea behind CSS - only have to declare something one time.

 

Put this in the head of your document:

 

<style type="text/css">
td
{
    width: 20%;
    background: #808080;
    text-align: center;
}

a
{
    text-decoration: none;
}
</style>

 

and change your td tags to look like this:

 

<td>

 

and your 'a' tags to look like this:

 

a

 

That will cut your code significantly, and if you want to change anything you will only have to change it in one spot, rather than every single tag on the page. It makes your code more compact and easier to read as well.
