Putting words in the same color as the background is frowned upon and some search enginges will list you as a spammer site and drop you
This illustrates the importance of knowing one’s limitations and
realizing that we don’t know everything. I got this tip out of a
book - not just me. Apparently the book wasn’t so up to date,
though. I’ll assume that the several people who jumped on this are
correct, and carefully pull my foot out of my mouth…
John,
Foot not in mouth lol there are as many ways to build a web site as
there are people. I am a member of the HWG still HTML Writers Guild
and they discuss these topics quite a bit. I just know that Yahoo and
Google and Dogpile have made adjustments to stop their bots from
crawling sites with meta tags and keywords in the page background.
Books are good tols but unfortunately as concerned with internet and
other technologies are out of date by the time they are published.
www.hwg.org is a good source as well as the big dog WWW3 consordium

I love Orchid because it is a place of learning and sharing. I
gotta donate again!
