I am still new to CSS/Javascript/JQuery. I am defining a couple of colors as classes in a css file. Then, I want to use one of them as the background color of a HTML page:

.wf_blue { color:rgb(2, 12, 40); }
.wf_white { color:rgb(255, 252, 247); }

body{background-color: wf_blue;}

The above does not work. I tried with JQuery, but unsuccessfully. I have seen other questions on SO, but could not figure out the solution. What am I doing wrong?

    First, the CSS should be:

    .wf_blue { background-color: rgb(2, 12, 40); }
    .wf_white { background-color: rgb(255, 252, 247); }
    

    In plain HTML

    <body class="wf_blue">
    

    With jQuery:

    $(document).ready(function() {
      $("body").addClass("wf_blue");
    });
