If you're coding it by hand it looks like

Code:

body {
	background-color: #E9E9E9;
}

Should be

Code:

body {
	background-color: #FFFFFF;
}

maybe ....

Hmm, any reason why you're using embedded styles as well as an external style sheet? The last embedded style:

body {
background-color: #E9E9E9;
}

will override the external style sheet value (which you've probably got set to background-color: #FFFFFF)

HTH

the website was made by someone who's no longer available for any help

so your questions are lost on me

just tried that, what it did was to change the boarder on the left and right of the page to white colour only, it did not get rid of them

body {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}

Worked for me. (Line 28-30)
You amy have a caching issue. When the page loads up (in the browser) press Ctrl F5 to clear the cache.

The entire page will turn white.

If that doeasn't work, are you sure you're editting the right file?

Oops: Didn't see that you have a styles.css file.

Rem that line out - does the body now change to white?

Have you got an online link?

without seeing how your styling is laying the pages out it is going to be hard to answer that question!
