Hello: Well, I never realized that trying to change a font color, size, and face was going to cause so much controversy...:) Anyway, I've been modifiying my code and right now it looks as such, I included the whole section of code so you can see what's happening:

push (@row, Tr ({"-align"       => "CENTER",
                                           "-valign"      => "TOP",
                                          "-BGCOLOR"     => "blue",
                                          "-font-color"  => "yellow",
                                           "-FONT-FAMILY" => "verdana,
+arial,helvetica",
                                            "-FONT-SIZE"   => "12"},

                                                                      
+      
                                                                th ("I
+tem"),
                th ("Quantity"),
                th ("Description"),
                th ("Unit Price"),
                th ("Price")
                                  
            ));
    foreach my $item_id (sort (keys (%{$cart_ref})))
    {
        my $item_ref = $cart_ref->{$item_id};
        my $total_item_price = $item_ref->{qty} * $item_ref->{price};
        $total_price += $total_item_price;
        # generate a link allowing the item to be deleted from the car
+t
        my $url = sprintf ("%s?choice=delete;item_id=%s",
                            url (), escape ($item_id));
                               push (@row, Tr (
                    td (escapeHTML ($item_id)),
                    td (escapeHTML ($item_ref->{qty})),
                    td (escapeHTML ($item_ref->{description})),
                    td ({-align => "right"},
                        escapeHTML (sprintf ("%.2f", $item_ref->{price
+}))),
                    td ({-align => "right"},
                        escapeHTML (sprintf ("%.2f", $total_item_price
+))),
                                                                      
+           ($show_links
                        ? td (a ({-href => $url}, img ({-src => "../im
+ages/delete.jpg",  -border => "0"})))
                                                                      
+                          : td ("    "))
                ));
    }
    push (@row, Tr (
                td ({-colspan => "2"}, ""),
                td ({-colspan => "2"}, "Total"),
                td ({-align => "right"},
                    escapeHTML (sprintf ("%.2f", $total_price)))
            ));

    return (table ({-border => 0}, @row));
}

Now, I believe I've incorporated lots of the suggestions but my row with headings have the blue background but it still doesn't want to take the new font color, size, or face. At least I'm not getting any error messages. Any other thoughts are greatly appreciated.
