Question

I try to validate my CSS code. I have no errors, only warning, but i dont like it.

I have 100 warnings, like this ones:

45 Same colors for color and background-color in two contexts #search and div.main_text
45 Same colors for color and background-color in two contexts div.testinput and div.main_text
45  Same colors for color and background-color in two contexts #submit and div.main_text
221 Same colors for color and background-color in two contexts div.test input and #index_be
221 Same colors for color and background-color in two contexts #login_submit and 


div.main_text {
  color: #a3986d;
}

#search {
    background-color:#a3986d;
}

What should I do with this?

Ignore it. Provided you never have HTML like this:

<div id="search">
    <div class="main_text">
    Hello!
    </div>
</div>

you’ll be fine. If you do have markup like that, then the contents of the div with class main_text will have a background colour of #a3986d and a foreground colour of #a3986d, so text won’t show up.

The fact that there is such a combination isn’t a problem, unless you use that combination.
