The site isn’t public at the moment, I have to get this fixed among a couple other things before it can go public.
Hmmm, are you familiar with “Inspect Element”?
if you are using firefox, install the “firebug” extension, or if you are using chrome, the following functionality is built-in.
Right-click on the text that is wrong and select “inspect Element”.
A window will open in the bottom of your browser and the faulty line in the source code should be selected. If you can past that line here I can see if I can help.
Alternatively, in the window that popped up, on the right side is the css for that specific element. You can play with it there to make it the way you want, and then, once it is how you want it, copy the changes to the style.css file.

Ok, I’ve found it and made the necessary changes, but it apparently puts all other text of the website in white, too. Problem there is that the background is, of course, white. Below is the code that showed up when inspected.
#content, #content input, #content textarea {
color: #333333;
font-size: 16px;
line-height: 24px;
}
I changed the #333333 to #FFFFFF which worked, but it changed ALL text white. The Send button is located in a dark blue button so I just need that to be white.
The code you posted will change all text in the element with the id of content, and all the inputs, and the textareas to have white text.
If you add the line:
#content input { color: #ffffff; }
underneath it should work.
if there is a unique id or class on that specific button you can target it directly.
As with rev’s post, it would be
.wpcf7-form input[type="submit"] { color: #ffffff; }

This worked, awesome. For the record and if someone else needs it, I’m using the third-style theme and that’s the CSS I had to edit. (…/wp-content/themes/third-style/style.css). The specific line of code is located at line 496. It’s just a couple lines below the
/* =Content
-------------------------------------------------------------- */
comment
I just added a new line of:
#content input { color: #ffffff; }
as suggested by jackreichert and that worked. Thanks!
My pleasure!
Don’t forget to mark the topic as resolved =)

Well, I spoke too soon. Apparently, it did work to set the Send button white. However, there are 4 text fields that I have in a contact form (Contact Form 7). Name, Email, Address, and a CAPTCHA entry. Name, Email, and the CAPTCHA appear as white text when you type in the box. The address field, however, you can type and actually read what you’re typing. Weird. Any thoughts on that? The only thing I’m seeing is the Name, Email, and CAPTCHA entry are all one liners while the address text entry is numerous lines.
Have you tried voodoo’s suggestion
.wpcf7-form input[type="submit"] { color: #ffffff; }
alternatively you can try
#content input[type="submit"] { color: #ffffff; }
If you post a link to the page I can be more specific.
