CSS - Color Scheme -- Different Color Teams
I'm making a game that revolves around four teams. For developmental purposes, I made the team colors blue, red, green, and yellow. And now I'm at the stage where I'm designing a layout. The theme is set in the 1800's, and my first idea was to have a different color scheme for each team (in accordance with their team color,) but my layouts ended up having nothing to do with the 1800's -- just colors (I want to give a very real effect to this website.) So I tried making a universal layout with a sort of tea-stained, burnt edges, parchment look, with a black background, but I had trouble making it tile nicely (partly the burnt edges, partly the stains in the paper.) So this is where I am. I need help designing a layout! I can change the team colors to whatever, I have beginner/intermediate photoshop skills (though, I'm quite competent,) and all suggestions are warmly welcomed!

Would someone please tell me why the color of the text isn't rendering white? hello, about the well-known color warnings (and in the best interest of good accessibility practices) is setting "background-color: inherit" a proper solution? it supresses the errors, but does it solve the problem of having good contrast between different elements/the use of custom stylesheets? i'm asking because i have a stylesheet with different classes for text which are used over different background-colors (from the parent elements). so unless i make a class for each possible application of these text styles, i don't see a way to specify a fixed background-color... i hope i explained my issue properly... thanks for any thoughts or suggestions on this Hi, Im trying to validate with CSS 3, but am getting one warning, which I really want to get rid of: Code:

Dose anyone know how to do this or know the sitting for it? I'm building a site (still sort of a novice) using CSS and I can't seem to get the border colors to display correctly. I would like the top-border to be the same color as right and left. When viewed in Dreamweaver, the border appears orange but when viewed in browser, the border is black. How do I get the top border to be orange? Here is my CSS: Code: #right_body {
width: 708px;
float: left;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
display: inline;
border-top: 3px;
border-top-style: solid;
border-top-color: FF6A00;
border-left: 2px;
border-left-style: solid;
border-left-color: #FF6A00;
border-right: 2px;
border-right-style: solid;
border-right-color: #FF6A00;
}
And my HTML: Code: <div id="left_side">left</div>
<div id="right_body"> middle </div>
<div id="right_side">right</div>
Hello, can anyone helpme ? i'm searching a command to change the combobox color... i mean, not the background or font.. something like the button (arrow button) ... does anyone know how to do it with CSS ?? thanks Hi there people, I have a question about CSS but before I start off asking this question I'll introduce myself. I'm a new user of this great forum, my name is Dwight and I'm a student on the "Graphical Lyceum Amsterdam" where I follow the education for "Multimedia Designer". Ok so now you know me a little, I'll start off asking my question. Question: I have to change the layout for a html page that askes for information from different asp pages, but that's not my problem . The problem is that I have to make some td's a different color -the background that is- but the problem is that I can't change the html page itself (it is automaticly generated and I don't have permission to change it). So my question is can someone tell me how I can change the color of some (not all!) td's with CSS without making classes? Tnx, Dwight i am trying to get rid of the border in IE9 or have the border color to match with the background color so that it doesn't look like there is one. This code works on google chrome but doesn't work on IE9. on the css i have: div.menu ul li a, div.menu ul li a:visited { background-color:#3a4f63; border: 1px #4e667d solid; color: #dde4ec; display: block; line-height: 1.35em; padding: 4px 20px; text-decoration: none; white-space: nowrap; border-color:#3a4f63; } on the asp page I have: <asp:Menu ID="NavigationMenu" runat="server" CssClass="menu" EnableViewState="false" IncludeStyleBlock="false" Orientation="Horizontal"> <Items> <asp:MenuItem Text="About Us"> </asp:MenuItem> <asp:MenuItem Text="Freight Services" Value="Freight Services"></asp:MenuItem> <asp:MenuItem Selectable="False"></asp:MenuItem> <asp:MenuItem Selectable="False"></asp:MenuItem> <asp:MenuItem Selectable="False"></asp:MenuItem> <asp:MenuItem Selectable="False"></asp:MenuItem> <asp:MenuItem Selectable="False"></asp:MenuItem> <asp:MenuItem Selectable="False"></asp:MenuItem> <asp:MenuItem Selectable="False"></asp:MenuItem> <asp:MenuItem Selectable="False"></asp:MenuItem> <asp:MenuItem Text="Customers" Value="Customers"></asp:MenuItem> <asp:MenuItem Selectable="False" Text="Carrier Corner" Value="Carrier Corner"> <asp:MenuItem Text="Carrier Setup" Value="Carrier Setup" NavigateUrl="~/Account/Register.aspx?ReturnUrl=~/Carrier.aspx&TypeOfUser=Carrier"></asp:MenuItem> </asp:MenuItem> <asp:MenuItem Text="Contact Us" Value="Contact Us"></asp:MenuItem> </Items> </asp:Menu> Hi, Is their any way to change the cursor color in css or javascript? Thanks Rishu I have an image that is gray-scale, and I want to dynamically change the color using CSS. Is this possible? #example { background-image:url('gray_button.png'); } I could change the opacity/transparency of the image. How do I "set" a color on Top of this image though? Any help appreciated. Hi, I have made a page using <div> tags. <div id="page"> <div id="leftmenu"> </div> <div id="mainarea"> </div> </div> My problem is that sometimes, the leftmenu is longer than the main area(1) and sometimes its the opposite- the main area is longer than the leftmenu(2). I want them both to be of the same height. (3) How can I do this? Plz Help! I have pasted the style codes for the 3 tags below. (1) (2) (3) #mainarea { background-color:#FFFFFF; float:left; position:relative; right:0pt; width:630px; } #leftmenu { background-color:#EEEEEE; float:left; left:0pt; position:relative; width:140px; } #page { background-color:#FFFFFF; position:relative; width:770px; } Like many programmers I use a combination of a bunch of different things to provide me the website I want. I use php, css, sql . . . more than one thing. I have a utility written in '04 by Patrick Fitzgerald (http://www.barelyfitz.com/projects/csscolor/) I use on almost every site I code. I don't put it in the page, I put it in the css file like this: Code:
<?php
header("Content-type: text/css");
include_once("../inc/csscolor.php");
include('inc/settings.inc');
$basea = new CSS_Color($darka);
$baseb = new CSS_Color($darkb);
?>
Then in the css I use something like Code:
.cart_button {
border:1px solid #<?= $baseb->bg['+2']; ?>;
padding:2 4;
background-color:<?= $baseb->bg['+3']; ?>;
color:black;
margin-bottom:-6;
}
#basket {
float:right;
width:140px;
border:1px solid <?= $baseb->bg['+3']; ?>;
padding:10px;
}
td.cart, th.cart {
border:1px solid <?= $baseb->bg['+3']; ?>;
padding:6px;
}
to display the color of elements. So here's my conundrum. I have elements with borders that aren't displaying. I'm pretty sure it's a compatibility issue. It renders in IE but not in FF. Thoughts? HeadElf Okay, I have a navigation and one link, "SERVICES" has a sub-menu. The submenu looks good in Firefox, Safari, and Netscape for the Mac. Also Firefox for the PC, but not IE7 for the PC. Here's the site: http://www.caillouette.com/Villere_dynamic2/rentals.php Please rollover, "SERVICES" in IE. Here's the style sheet (*note: I created it Dreamweaver using Spry.

thanks the code here works fine, except that the displayed text changes from white to black. It would be nice if each new text would start as FFFFCC and then fade to 3E3D11.

HTML Code: <a href="#" class="butt">My butdfsf fd fds fds sd fdsaf aaton</a> I have table in html with 3 col and 15 rows. I want to set the color of the even rows 'red' and odd 'blue'. How it is possible. please help? Adil i wanted usersto choose their own style sheet by giving them different links like red, green, blue which will take them to different layouts or background color page. the problem was that worked only for that particular page but if they click on any link or menu from that page it will take them back to the default color. is there any way that i can set so that their choice will stay throught their surfing ? any thoughts ? hanks |
