CSS - A, A:link Not Rendering Correct Color
Hi all,
below is the code i have in my css, but from some reason my website is showing blue instead of yellow for links can you tell my why this is happening ffff00 is suppose to be yellow, at least that is what Expression web 2 shows. /* Sets the style for unvisited links. */ a, a:link { color: #FFFF00; text-decoration: underline; font-weight: bold; } Do to forum rules i can't post my url, so i know it will be difficult to troubleshoot. but thanks, for all the help you can give me. Bustersnm Similar Tutorialshttp://www.rich-carey.com/rc-alpha/index.php?c=files&content=misc A problem with my CSS means the columns arent equal, any ideas? ive tried several things, and JUST got colour on the right side now. Someone said something about problems with floats but i didnt quite udnerstand it Well, the subject says it all. http://www.virtual-business-options...est/index1.html. On a page I'm developing</a>, I have the three column layout. In IE, Net, FF, it appears fine. But Opera 6 (No folks, I still haven't upgraded!!!) loads the background image completely messed up. But, if you scroll down, it appears fine, and if you scroll back up, it appears fine...oh boy! I'm wondering if this possibly has something to do with the Flash embed. The validator is pointing out several problems with the embed element and, since I'm not familiar with Flash, I don't know how to validate it (or even if it can be). Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks. Tim With IE, the background of SELECT elements is not respecting the CSS file setting. But IE does respect the CSS for the INPUT element. Netscape 7.1 and Mozilla Firefox work correctly for SELECT and INPUT. Here is a snippet from my stylesheet file: SELECT { FONT-WEIGHT: normal; BACKGROUND: beige; COLOR: darkgreen } INPUT { FONT-WEIGHT: normal; BACKGROUND: beige; COLOR: darkgreen } I have tried #FFFFD8 and #F5F5DC as alternatives to the name "beige" for the SELECT entry. Result is always white. Yet my text boxes show properly as beige so I am confused about why that name is ignored for SELECT elements. Note that I can change the entry to something basic like BACKGROUND: yellow and that displays correctly (but I don't want yellow - I want beige - like the INPUT element). These SELECT and INPUT elements are always in some table such as: <td class=genericinputleft>Starting Date<select name=dd1 etc. Could there be a cascading problem in IE ? Here is the CSS: .genericinputLeft { FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: x-small; BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; text-align: left; vertical-align: top } I have tried commenting out the BACKGROUND entry from the class above but that does not seem to help. Thanks. I have three overlapping layers: 1. div#banner This is a "background" layer. Code: #banner { position:absolute; width:750px; height:125px; z-index:1; left: 25px; top: 50px; background-image: url(banner_images.js); border: 2px solid #CF1C0D; 2. dev.redseethru#links This is a semi-transparent "color filter" layer. Code: .redseethru { position:absolute; width:150px; height:100px; z-index:3; left: 627px; top: 52px; filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(enabled=true, sizingMethod=scale src='images/redseethru.png'); } .redseethru[class] { background-image: url(images/redseethru.png); #links { position:absolute; width:750px; height:25px; z-index:5; left: 27px; top: 152px; border-top: 1px solid #CF1C0D; } 3. div#link1 This is the top layer- it is used for text, and preferably text that is a link. Code: #link1 { position:absolute; width:74px; height:15px; z-index:100; font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 5px; left:0px; text-align: center; border-right: 1px solid #CF1C0D; Okay, so all preceding code shown is in my .css document. The related code in my php document is: Code: <div id="banner"><script>showImage();</script></div> <div id="redseethru" class="redseethru"></div> <div class="redseethru" id="links"> <div id="link1"><a href="http://www.mysite.com/products/index.php">Products</a></div> <div id="link2">Rentals</div> <div id="link3">Services</div> <div id="link4">Events</div> <div id="link5">About Us </div> </div> The problem is that although the text is being rendered as a link, in Internet Explorer I am not able to click on the link. In Firefox, everything works fine. Is there a way to modify something to have the link be functioning in IE?? Any ideas or resources are much appreciated... thanks! Just when I think I've finally seen it all, every way these browsers can **** up, there's always one more. This morning I discovered that Netscape 7 / Win does not properly render an a element with image content. My example demonstrates that both IE 6 / Win and Netscape 7 / Win both have issues rendering a elements with text content also. This seems like really basic stuff . . . how, HOW could Netscape 7 not be able to render the a with image content correctly??? (Another good question is why this forum doesn't allow you to upload HTML files . . . WTF?? -- you'll have to rename the file to .html) Hello Is there a way i can restore my <a href> link back to its original color, that is before the a:visited event, when I click on another link? PS. no Javascript code needed, is their an alternative in css? Hi all new member, just learning css! need help targeting my menu system? Html so far! -its a dynamic menu system, and i have no control of the naming system of the li Code: <div class="nav-container"> <ul id="nav"> <li> <a href="http://localhost/">Home</a> </li> <li class="level0 nav-1 level-top first"> <a class="level-top" href="http://localhost/mens.html"> <span>Mens</span> </a> </li> <li class="level0 nav-2 level-top"> <a class="level-top" href="http://localhost/womens.html"> <span>Womens</span> </a> </li> </ul> </div> I need to target the li classes - each one individual to bring in a different image for each when rolled over. Css i have for one of the examples:- .level0 nav-2 level-top li { float:left; padding:0px; font-size:14px; font-weight:bold; color:#000; text-transform:uppercase; background-image:url("navigation.gif"); width:85px;} .level0 nav-2 level-top li a:hover { color:#FDDD15; background-image:url("navigation.gif"); width:85px;background-position:0 -20px;} But its not right, not targetting it! - what is the correct path to target the different nav's? Thanks Hello is there a way to make it so hyperlinks are not decorated as the default blue? I have the following css which I've attempted to make it so the text '.com' is always white, but it defaults to the standard link color. html: <td class="nodecoration"><a class="nodecoration" href="http://www.somesite.com">.com</a></td> css: Code: td.nodecoration { background-color: #003399; color: white; width: 120px; height: 30px; font-family: "Verdana", sans-serif; font-size: 25px; font-weight: bold; text-align:center; } A:link.nodecoration {text-decoration: none} A:visited.nodecoration{text-decoration:none} A:active.nodecoration{text-decoration:none} a:hover.nodecoration{text-decoration:underline} <style type="text/css"> <!-- body { margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; } a { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #FFFFFF; font-size: 11px; font-weight: bold; } a:visited { color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: underline; } a:hover { color: #FFE648; text-decoration: none; } a:active { color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: underline; } a:link { text-decoration: underline; color: #FFFFFF; } .main_border { border-top: none; border-right: 1px solid #333333; border-bottom: 1px solid #333333; border-left: 1px solid #333333; } .field_style1 { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; border: 1px solid #666666; } .whitebold_12px { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; color: #FFFFFF; } .whitebold_11px { font-size: 11px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; text-transform: none; color: #FFFFFF; } .arrow_bold { font-size: 14px; color: #FDDB00; font-weight: bold; } .disclaimer {font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9px; color: #CCCCCC; } .footer_text1 {font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9px; color: #FFFFFF; } --> </style> <style type="text/css"> .footer_text2 {FONT-SIZE: 9px; COLOR: #ffffff; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif} A {COLOR: #ffffff; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif} A:visited {COLOR: #333333; TEXT-DECORATION: underline} A:hover {COLOR: #cccccc; TEXT-DECORATION: none} A:active {COLOR: #333333; TEXT-DECORATION: underline} A:link {COLOR: #333333; TEXT-DECORATION: underline} </style> This my style tags. I have bunch of links on the page. Now it possible that links could be in different colors and also visted and hover links could be different. When I put class .footer_text2 , it over writes everything that I hade before and all my links get style accorrding to footer_text I have three "buttons" that are essentially <div> elements on a page made to look like a button. I would like to make the background color change for the button on the "hover" state, but for some reason the only part of the background that changes on the hover state is the area only behind the text. Here's my code. I'd like the whole background area to change, anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Code: .prioritycontainer { width: auto; float: left; display: inline; margin: 0px 0px; padding: 10px 0px; } .prioritybutton { float: left; width: 150px; height: auto; display: inline; margin: 0px 20px 0px 0px; padding: 3px 3px 3px 3px; background-color: #978047; border: solid 1px #CCBC77; color: #fff; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; vertical-align: middle; } .prioritybutton a:link { color: #fff; text-decoration: none; } .prioritybutton a:visited { color: #fff; text-decoration: none; } .prioritybutton a:hover { color: #fff; background-color: #A19058; text-decoration: none; } .prioritybutton a:active { color: #fff; background-color: #A19058; text-decoration: none; } Markup on .html page is as follows: Code: <div class="prioritycontainer"> <div class="prioritybutton"><a href="one.htm">One</a></div> <div class="prioritybutton"><a href="two.htm">Two</a></div> <div class="prioritybutton"><a href="three.htm">Three</a></div> </div> Any help would be very helpful. Thanks, Brian Code: <style> .class1, .class1 a { color: blue; } .class2, .class2 a { color: green; } </style> <div class="class1"> <a href="moo.html">This link shows up as blue</a> <a href="moo2.html" class="class2">This link shows up as blue even though it should be green.</a> </div> Anyone know how to get around this without resorting to applying classes to every <a> tag.. ? Like say I want to change the color of a single link while leaving default to all the others.. Hi i am using to different styles to preview my links but i want when a link is being visited to return to his starting point.For example it is black and when is being visited i want it again when the second time the user come's to the page to see it black again.I tried a lot of methods but when i put the visited pseudo class it blocks and the the hover pseudo class is not working.Plz help ****the class that i have the problem is "boxes" Code: A:link { COLOR: #2094E1; TEXT-DECORATION: none } A:active { COLOR: #2094E1; TEXT-DECORATION: none } A:visited { COLOR: #2094E1; TEXT-DECORATION: none } A:hover { COLOR: #ffffff; TEXT-DECORATION: none } TD { FONT-SIZE: 10px; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif } hr{ color: #96A097; height: 0px; width: 150px; } #title{ FONT-SIZE: 11px; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif COLOR: #000000; } .mainbox{ FONT-SIZE: 10px; COLOR: #727C8E; padding-top:5px; padding-bottom:3px; } .boxes { FONT-SIZE: 10px; COLOR: #000000; padding-top:3px; padding-left:3px; padding-right:3px; padding-bottom:3px; } .boxes a:link { FONT-SIZE: 10px; COLOR: #000000; } .boxes a:active { FONT-SIZE: 10px; COLOR: #000000; } .boxes a:hover { FONT-SIZE: 10px; COLOR: #FFFFFF; } .boxes a:visited { FONT-SIZE: 10px; COLOR: #000000; How do I get rid of the blue text and underline ?? Here is my style sheet #page_content { margin-left: 200px; } #container { position: relative; width: 100%; } #background { width: 100%; position: absolute; z-index: -1; top: 0; left: 0; background-color: #000000; } #testbox{ width: 100%; height:100%; position: relative; } #menu li{ display: inline; text-transform: uppercase; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.0em; font-weight: bold; padding: 0 10px 0 10px; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; } #data{ width: 190px; height: 200px; margin: 20px; position: absolute; bottom: 150px; color: #FFFFFF; font-size:1.3em; } Hi I have a css file stating the following: A:link { color: #71828A } A:visited { color: #71828A } A:active { color: #71828A } ... of course this is applied to the whole page. I would like to set different link colors inside table data: #BottomTable TD A:link { color: #CCCCCC } ... but this doesnt work! Any ideas, please? I'm trying to create a hover effect that changes the background color behind a link, but instead of ending with the text, the color change extends to the width of the div. It's hard to explain, so here's an example: checkout the sidebar at pastemagazine.com. I've tried dissecting their source code, but they have about 5 different stylesheets and it's really hard to follow. As far as I can tell, this is what makes the hover effect and I just can't figure out how they make the background color change extend beyond the text. I have my links in a ul just as they do and they don't seem to be doing anything else special. Code: #sect1 ul.stories a:hover{ background-color:#d9f7ff; color: #71808F; } Thanks! cae The problem: a link appears in the color i have set in IE, but in other (probably the default one) color in FireFox the explanation of the situation: attachment 1 that's how it looks in FireFox attachment 2 that's how it looks in IE, and the way it should look! cause that's the color i have set in the css file here is the code from the css file Code: A { color: #D9E0EF; text-decoration: underline; } A:HOVER { color: #D9E0EF; text-decoration: none; } here is the code around the link from the screenshots Code: <p align="center"><b><font size="7"><a href="index.php?p=join/index">JOIN</a></font></b></p> where may be the problem which doesn't allow to FireFox to see that there is set color for the links? What is the best practice for giving an <a> a different color than the underline? Background image? <a><span></span></a>? Something else? I have make css from page property and type a sample text and covert it into <a> tag as css <a> tag should come in green color bt it shows in purple color and i dont why please suggest asap as required for my institute. thanks in advance link is attached please check the css also Code: http://practice.zymichost.com/ Hi there, I have an image rollover css script, but it will not understand a:active so is there a way I can use an inline a:active attribute? Many thanks! |
