ive been watching a tutorial that has told me to change the background color of a webpage by using:

body {background-color:red;}

however when i try and load the page in google chrome the background remains white?

This is my full code:

<!doctype html>
<html>              <!--Document START-->
    <head>              <!--Head START-->
        <title>Page Title</title>   
        <style type="text/css">                 <!--CSS START-->            
            body {  background-color:red }
        </style>
    </head>
    <body>                          <!--Body START-->
        <h1>Page Title</h1>
    </body>
</html>

    The problem is you have an html comment within your css.

    <style type="text/css">                 <!--CSS START-->

    Remove the <!--CSS START--> and it will work fine.

    If you want to add comments within css then you can use /* */, e.g:

    <style type="text/css">
/* CSS START */
