CSS - Td Style - Text Color

That's what a friend of mine is trying to do to her blog.
She's been trying for the longest time to get the hover command to change some link text color into a gif image, but all she can manage is the background behind the text.

If you don't get what I'm trying to say, this is a screen cap of what she has right now: img801.imageshack.us/i/screencap.png/

Basically, she want's to know if there's a way so that, rather than having the gif around her text, it would display inside of her text only so that the words would look like static.

If anyone knows if this is even possible, please help me out.

Thanks in advance.

Hello I'm trying to figure this out. I want different color on the text-decoration overline and underline then the text. I know it's possible but how?
It works if i change it into border but that's not the case. Here's a picture to give you the idea.
Please help

Thanks in advance

Since i can't link url here's the link for the picture

I currently have a PRE tag inside a DIV tag. The DIV tag has a limited size.
Often a long line of text will stretch outside the PRE tag. I do not mind this horisontal overflow as
the contents has more meaning when it is not wrapped.

My problem is that this overflow text flows under the right hand navigation column on my site. I would like the
PRE tag to be above everything else on my site. How can I do this?

The overflow text seems to have no background, making it hard to read if it is over an image.
Is there any way to get overflow text to have a brackground without expanding the PRE tag?

I have a Joomla! 1.5 site and I would like to make the colors of a current selection and the hovering text (when I mouse over a link) different colors. Right now they are both set to be white as governed by the following code in my template.css:

.navigation .menu-drop > li:hover > a > span, .navigation .menu-drop > .active > a > span, .navigation .menu-drop > #current > a > span, .navigation .menu-drop > .sfHover > a > span {
color: #FFFFFF;
}

What would I need to do to this to make the changes I need? Like is there a spot where I can split this code and add in another color?

This is my first post so hello everybody!

I am trying to implement this menu and my problem arises in trying to change the submenu font color (as well as the hover color) at levels 2 and 3 of the menu.

I figured this would be as straightforward as just changing the color values in the CSS, but it doesn't seem to be responsive. Interestingly, it works for the first level. It's been driving me insane.

I can change the submenu background color, but not the font color even though there looks to be code for it.

Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated! You can test out the menu itself from the site or take a gander at a portion of the code I'll post below. I commented on the section towards the bottom.

Cheers,

hi all ! I want to know how I can change the text size and color for a button created inside my page (only for the button the rest should remain the same). The data and button are created in PHP so it looks something like:

Code:

<div class="column3">
<div class="padding">
<?php if( $this->countModules('right') ): ?>
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="right" style="xhtml" />
<?php endif; ?>
</div>

And css for that part of the page is:

Code:

#index .box .column3 {width:252px;}

http://www.students.niu.edu/~z162609/asme.html

That is my website. As you can see on the left the link box changes with the actual text in the main box. The text goes down as the text on the main content box gets bigger.

I am very new to CSS and really do not know anything. I am fairly sure this is a one line fix. However, I really need this and would appreciate any help.

Code:

html,body{margin:0;padding:0}
body{font: 76% arial,sans-serif;text-align:center}
p{margin:0 10px 10px}
a{padding:5px; text-decoration:none; color:#000000;}
div#header{background-color:#F3F2ED;}
div#header h1{height:80px;line-height:80px;margin:0;padding-left:10px;}
div#container{text-align:left}
div#content p{line-height:1.4}
div#navigation{background:#F6F0E0;}
div#navigation ul{margin:15px 0; padding:0; list-style-type:none;}
div#navigation li{margin-bottom:5px;}
div#extra{background:#CCC8B3;}
div#footer{background:#BFBD93;}
div#footer p{margin:0;padding:5px 10px}
div#container{width:700px;margin:0 auto}
div#wrapper{float:left;width:100%}
div#content{margin: 0 150px}
div#navigation{float:left;width:150px;margin-left:-150px}
div#extra{float:left;width:150px;margin-left:-700px}
div#footer{clear:left;width:100%}

Going to the far below link and clicking on the top link "projects" of that page brings up a menu with three links. Clicking on one of those links, 'Built' for example, brings up another submenu and at the same time it highlights "Built" as orange. Clicking on "Unbuilt" or "In Progress" has the same effect.

What I'm now needing to happen is if say you click on "Block" under the "Built" menu and it goes to the "Block" page I have "projects" and "Block" highlighted as orange but I'm not sure how to have "Built" continually highlighted as orange but when either "Unbuilt" or "In Progress" is clicked on the link "Built" goes to grey and the menu item clicked on turns to orange - as I currently have it.

Seems what I need is an CSS class/ID OnLoad for just "Built" (per this example) to where when going to the "Block" page the link "Built" is orange in the beginning but when the other links are clicked on it turns to grey.

Would anyone have advice on how to achieve this? This doesn't work in Safari btw:

I am at a total loss on this one.

I'm trying to create a simple inline unordered list menu - no problems there - I've done that plenty of times. However, this time I would like my menu to have a border around it instead of being a plain box.

As soon as I add the 'border-style:solid' modifier to the div, the text misaligns straight down, roughly 15px lines, out of the box. This happens on Firefox (and apparently on Opera as well, though I haven't checked that one myself).

At this point I've stripped the page to bare bones, switched from transitional to strict, tried float vs not, tried margins vs 0 margins, and padding vs 0 padding, relative vs absolute, and attempted to manually shift the text through negative positions as well. No joy.

Css:
Code:

/* Navigation */

#nav { 
	width: 821px;
	height: 18px;
	border: 1px;
	border-style: solid;
	border-color:red;
}


#nav ul { 
}

#nav li {
	display:inline;
	float:left;
	background-color:#9E0C0C;
	text-align:center;
	color:white;
	font-family: arial, san-serif;
	font-size: 14px;
	font-variant: small-caps;
}

and page:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
	<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
	<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" >
<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen">
</head>
<body>
<div id="nav">
 	   		
			<ul>
				<li>Home</li>
				<li>XXX</li>
				<li>XXX</li>
				<li>CCC</li>
				<li>HHH</li>
				<li>JJJ</li>
				<li>kkk</li>
				<li>KKK</li>
			</ul>
	</div>
</body>
</html>

(As I said, I've stripped it to absolutely nothing else.)

Any suggestions would be welcome.

(ETA: Also tried changing text size in case a too-large font size was making the text 'pop out' of the box. That is also not it.)

Hi,

I just can't seem to get my head around this one. I have a website title which appears on every page. The whole title is a link to the index page of the website. I want the second part of the title to be a h1 header with smaller font in a different colour. I also want the whole title to be on one line.

I can only seem to get either all the words in the same font, or I can get the two parts to display their different fonts correctly, but they then appear on two lines, one under the other!



My page code:

<div id="garden-designer-title"><a href="(*website address*)" title="home">Joe Blogs</a><h1 style="display: inline'"><a href="(*website address*)" title="home">Garden Design</a></h1>
</div>



My stylesheet code:

#garden-designer-title {
position:relative;
left:0px;
top:0px;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
width:526px;
height:51px;
z-index:7;
}

#garden-designer-title a {
position:relative;
font-size: 46px;
font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #009999;
font-weight: normal;
text-decoration: none;
}

#garden-designer-title h1 a {
display: inline;
font-size: 29px;
font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #9482A4;
font-weight: normal;
text-decoration: none;
}

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?!

Many thanks!

I am having two problems with a theme I have for PHPBB3. One problem is the text that you type into textboxes when making a new post, updating your profile, or a few other spots is white on a very light grey background; therefore, hardly showing up.

The second problem is that the page display a white line at the bottom of a few pages (but not others) and the line goes away if you resize the IE window smaller, but reappears again if you full screen it.

I know the first problem has to exist in the stylesheet.css file; however, I am not sure where to make these changes as I am not familiar with PHPBB stylesheets. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Line Problem -

I'm missing something here. I want to change the color of the default value for this text field, without changing the overall color of the input field. For example, the default value of 170 will be gray, but when a user overwrites the data with their own numerical value, it will be black. I know how to change the color of the input field when a user types in data, but is there a way to change the color of the value= ?

<input type="text" name="trans1_1" size="6" value="170"/>

Any ideas? Seems like a simple task, but can't figure it out. Thanks in advance for the time.

New to this but with due diligence, will learn this......I have built asp update form to allow users to enter new data into the database. They are wanting to change new text entries into blue rather than using the default color (black). This highlights those new entries for those reviewing the data. I have googled for methods ranging from radio buttons to check boxes to define a new font color with no luck so far....any help is greatly appreciated............best case I think, would be a font tool bar added to the form, but have not found that method


thanks

I am looking for a way (preferably using CSS) to make an I-beam or cursor inside a text field to become invisible. This may be achieved by changing its color to match the bgcolor, by making it invisible altogether, or even simply to get it to stop blinking (when the bg color is black). Any help would be appreciated.

I am just wondering if there is a way to simply extend a style rule from one previously defined. For instance, if I have this rule:
Code:

 .textarea-box {
	color: #990000;
	background-color: #fff;
	width: 375px;
	height: 200px;
	border: #000 solid 1px;
	} 

...if I want another text area rule to be the same except for one difference, the height should be 80px, do I have to write the rule out again with a new name, incorporating the new height, or is there some nifty way to just change the height in the new rule?
Thanks for help with this.
