Suppose to be in red color, but in actual I still see it black. Why is it ? How to turn it to red ?

Because you're missing a semi colon after "red"...."color: red;"

You should run your html and css through the w3 validators and it will point out typoes like this as well as invalid code.

It doesn't point out the solution only the errors.

for example:

Target: http://color:#ff0000
I/O Error: color

How to use the validator ? Well, I need the altertive solution if it is error.

It still doesn't work

#content #boxcontainer h3{ 
	font face: "Arial" font-color:"red"; size: 14px;
         }

Then you're not targeting the correct child element.

h3{ 
	color: red;
	font-size: 14px;
	font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	}

That works perfectly for me on an h3 tag.
