Ok im starting a new site i have problem. My background has black in it and the default color of these text. well maybe i should show you what i want to change

<script>

var textdisplay=new Array()
textdisplay[0]="Check out the Download section for cool some cool programs"
textdisplay[1]="Come chat with cool people and get answers to your guestion"
textdisplay[2]="Check out the greastest fourm on the web"
textdisplay[3]="Come check out our fourms for some great info"
textdisplay[4]="Check here for great news thats happenin now!"

function displaydesc(which){
if (document.all)
descriptions.innerHTML=textdisplay[which]
else if (document.getElementById)
document.getElementById("descriptions").innerHTML= textdisplay[which]
}

displaydesc(document.a294.a969.selectedIndex)

document.a294.a969.options[0].selected=true

</script>

I want to change the the color of the discription when ever way i tried it i get a script error. So anyone know a way to change it? Also i was wondering if anyone knew where i could get script/code for chat and also for a small forum?

Thanks in adavance
