ocss on "Editing color in html"

I was editing the color of a table I coded in html on a page. The colors show up in the visual screen when editing, but not on the live blog.
Here is the code, am I missing something?:

<table border="1">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#808080">President</td>
<td bgcolor="#808080">Bill Harris
ocss_president@hotmail.com </td>
</tr>
