Thanks Hello all I need help please :-) I have a website I am making that will have various boxes and each box has to have a different link color and hover over color. My issue is that teh css does not work in terms of making all the links display the correct color as outlined in the css file. here is my css file maybe someone can tell me what is wrong (I will comment in the file also whats not working Code: <style type="text/css"> body { background-image: url(./images/pgbg.gif); color: #000000; /*the below link attributes does not work */ visited: color:#000000; text-decoration: none; link: color:#000000; text-decoration: none; focus: color:#000000; text-decoration: none; active: color:#000000; text-decoration: none; hover: color: #CC0000; } .header{ background-image: url(./images/header.png); background-color:#E6E6E6; position:absolute; width: 900px; height: 100px; left: 50px; top: 5px; } .navbox1{ /*General Links Navbox*/ background-image: url(./images/navbg.png); position:absolute; background-color:#E6E6E6; width: 170px; left: 60px; top: 115px; padding-left: 5px; /*the below link attributes does not work */ visited: color:#E6E6E6; text-decoration: none; link: color:#E6E6E6; text-decoration: none; focus: color:#E6E6E6; text-decoration: none; active: color:#E6E6E6; text-decoration: none; hover: color: #CC0000; } .navbox2{ /*Users Links Navbox*/ background-image: url(./images/navbg.png); position:absolute; background-color:#E6E6E6; width: 170px; left: 60px; top: 310px; padding-left: 5px; /*the below link attributes does not work */ visited: color:#E6E6E6; text-decoration: none; link: color:#E6E6E6; text-decoration: none; focus: color:#E6E6E6; text-decoration: none; active: color:#E6E6E6; text-decoration: none; hover: color: #CC0000; } .loginbox{ /*Login Box*/ background-image: url(./images/navbg.png); position:absolute; background-color:#E6E6E6; width: 170px; left: 60px; top: 400px; padding-left: 5px; } .content{ background-color:#E6E6E6; position:absolute; width: 700px; height: 455px; left: 250px; top: 115px; padding-left: 10px } .footer{ position:absolute; width: 700px; left: 100px; top: 585px; color: #D6E7D3; } </style> hello everyone, I can't get colors to show in firefox for the life of me. I have this used by a javascript mutliple times and need different colors. Help please, let me know if you need more info. Code: .signalButton{ width:80px; height:4; background-color: #0066FF; } Thank You, Wasim I'm making a page and I've got an a:link specification. I want a separate specification for a part of the page under a .header tag. The background on that part of the page doesn't match the a:link color I have specified for the rest of the page. So I want one specifically for the .header tag. Doesn't seem to be working though. How do you think I should throw it in there? I have a CSS that manages my site, but I've got a list of links that are dynamicly created with php/mysql. I have two lists that I would like to use non-CSS colors for their links. Is there a way to override the CSS to force certain colors on the links? I've tried using the normal <p> or style settings, but the main links portion of the CSS always takes precedence and I can't seem to make it work for me. A little background for you...the lists are as follows: 1 - a list of currently open jobs in the company 2 - a list of all jobs in the company Both lists are also links to the job descriptions. List 1 is created based on whether the database has the job flagged as open, so its never static. List 2 is not static either because it lists the jobs in the database. I've set-up a few link colrs in a style sheet - I see it working in mac IE, and Safari - but not IE in windows. Most of the formatting is being ignored. I'm going to try setting all attributes (link, visited, hover...) for each set but that seems like a reach. any ideas? the link: http://www.eightbyten.com/rc_store/shopcart_test.html the style sheet directly: http://www.eightbyten.com/rc_store/link.css Thanks! Greetings all. I am building a site which displays data in tables, with different background colors and different text colors. I am using CSS for everything, and it's working out great. Very happy with it so far. What I want to do, and can't seem to figure out, is link / visited colors. In each line of data, some of the columns are links. I want to set the link text color to the same as the non-link text color. I can override the text color easily enough. If I want a row to be white on red, I do that by saying: <tr style="background-color: #f00; color: #fff" >. I cannot figure out how to change a link color. The cells in the row that are links, I want to make them white on red also. Not just the default link color for the page. Any help would, of course, be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tom I'm just starting to experiment with external css files and I'm stuck on how to deal with setting color for the links. When I put this in the html page itself it works fine: <style type="text/css"> a:link {color: #FF0000} a:visited {color: #00FF00} a:hover {color: #FF00FF} a:active {color: #0000FF} </style> But when I instead move it to the body section of my external css file and link to that css from my html file, it doesn't do anything (link colors just go back to the default). I know I'm generally setting up the external css file correctly since the other things I set in that external file get picked up correctly (font family, font size, background image, etc.). Any magic to using link colors in an external sheet?? In case it helps, here is my css file: Code: body { background-color: #000033; color: white; background-image:url(balbkgnd.gif); a:link {color: #FF0000} a:visited {color: #00FF00} a:hover {color: #FF00FF} a:active {color: #0000FF} } td { font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: Trebuchet MS; a:link {color: #FF0000} a:visited {color: #00FF00} a:hover {color: #FF00FF} a:active {color: #0000FF} } th { font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: Trebuchet MS; a:link {color: #FF0000} a:visited {color: #00FF00} a:hover {color: #FF00FF} a:active {color: #0000FF} } This is the new site I'm working on: http://animalemergencybloomington.com/Index2.html Link and Visited Link colors work, but I can't get Active or Hover color to work. (Doesn't work in any of the browsers I've tested it in.) Right now I have this in the <head> css Code: Original - css Code <style type="text/css"> body { color: #000000; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Verdana; margin: 0px 0px; } A:link { text-decoration: none } A:visited { text-decoration: none } </style> <style type="text/css"> and this for the <body>: <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000" link="#0000FF" alink="#0000FF" vlink="#1E90FF"> adding a:active and a:hover colors to the style gives a "parse error" for those lines when I try to validate and doesn't work anyway as far as getting a color change on hover. I've been trying different combinations in the body and style all afternoon but get error warnings on everything I've tried except the above combo. I'm just trying for links that are never underlined (hate how cluttered that makes things look) but turn red on hoover. Help? Thanks, Ez I worked out a css layout in Safari using various rgba colors for div backgrounds like so: css Code: Original - css Code .someStyle { background-color: rgba(0,0,0,.3); } .someStyle { When I access the page in the latest version of Firefox (1.5.0.1), it rejects every rgba color with the error message: Error: Expected end of value for property but found 'rgba'. Error in parsing value for property 'background-color'. Declaration dropped. Source File: http://localhost/Project1/css/WidgetStyles.css Line: 50 I'm assuming this is a Firefox bug but just wanted to check with others here. Strangely, Firefox does support rgba colors in <canvas> tags so why not in CSS? Thanks for any help Here is the site I am working on: http://testlableon.ourcampusbookstore.com/index.php There are 3 navigation bars on the template. The first one (navbar) is the black one right under the header. The second one (userbar) is right under the navbar and it is supposed to be light gray (#eeeeee). The third one is the at the bottom of the page (footerbar) and is supposed to have a black (#000000) background. If you look at the site in ie, all the background colors are displayed correctly. If you look at the site in firefox or netscape though, the userbar and footerbar are not having their background colors displayed. Any ideas? Hello ppl, I have a problem about 6 div's which are displayed inline. Everything is OK in Opera and IE but in firefox everything is wrong .. all the divs are almoust in the same place , one over another here is the link http://www.immo-land.ro/test/div-inline.html and below is the code which I wrote for every DIV Code: <div style="border: 1px solid #c5732a; width: 164px; height: 150px; padding: 95 0 0 0; margin: 3px 3px 3px 3px; display: inline; background-image: url(../images/immo-land-apartamente-garsoniere.jpg); background-repeat: no-repeat"> <a href="http://localhost/immoland/vanzare-apartamente.php" style="background: #C5732A; width: 100%;">Apartamente</a> <br> Text here </div> any ideea why is all that mess in firefox ? 10x in advance See ya all This page - juicyart dot net / test.html (sorry I can't post URLs yet) - displays fine in IE, but not in Firefox or Opera. In those two browsers the top image and white background of the container div won't display. The top image displays, but not completely - only about half of it shows up. Any suggestions? I can't figure this out for the life of me and W3C validates my css as valid so I'm at a loss. I'm hoping I can get some guidance on why I can't get this popout menu to work! I used the code from this article to build a popout menu, but for some reason I can't get it to work in firefox. If you test their demo in Firefox but if you test mine, it looks great in Internet Explorer, but gets all messed up Firefox & Opera. If you save the page you will see there is a style sheet as well as a small Javascript file too. If someone could check over my code for me that would be great! I have been staring at it for hours and can't seem to find the problem! This is my first project using CSS styles to control something besides the usual things like fonts, etc. so go easy on me! Thanks in advance! Chelsea First of all here is the page: http://xander6669.com/ It looks like I want in IE, but there is a still a white space on top of the page with firefox/opera. I've tried hundreds of things but I can't seem to be able to fix it. Anyone could give me a hand? Here is the HTML and CSS: HTML: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/tr/xhtml1/dtd/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"/><title>Xander6669</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="body/body.css"/></head><body> <img src="images/border1.gif" alt="" height="5" width=779"/></body></html> CSS: Code: body { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } Hi! Let's consider this XHTML: (I've put the CSS in a style attr. for conciseness) [HTML] <div style="width:100%;height:70px;background: #D10C23;display:block;">dfsdfdsfsd <img src="haha.gif" width="1000" height="50"></div> [/HTML] Now, if you make the browser window in FF or Opera less than 1000 pixels wide (a horizontal scrollbar appears), and scroll to the right, you'll see that the background color doesn't span until the end of the page. Why is this? Thanks Im novice to CSS, im makin my first one. I have this problem, i made my class and then i did the a:hover with that class but it is not shown in firefox and opera, works fine in IE. Am i forgetting something? how do i fix? here's my code: Code: body { background-color: #1A1852; background-image: url(../imagenes/fondo2.gif); } .menu { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; color: #000000; text-decoration: none; } a:menu:link { text-decoration: none; } a:menu:active { text-decoration: none; } a:menu:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #000000; } a:menu:hover { font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; color: #000000; } .actual { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; color: #000000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline; } .descarga { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; color: #FFFFCC; text-decoration: none; } a.descarga:hover { font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline; color: #FF9966; } .texto { color: #FFFFFF; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; } .pie { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #CCCCCC; font-size: 10px; } .titulo { color: #CC66CC; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; font-weight: bold; } .vinculo { color: #FFFFFF; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; color: #FFFFCC; } .tabla { border-style: dashed; border-width: thin; border-color:#CC66CC; } Hello Everybody, I had this site working in opera and IE and it works beautifully.
