I've uploaded this page he http://www.alastairq.co.uk/s-gaming The Web page looks like it should in FireFox 2 but in IE 6, the colour is completely wrong. Could anyone help me? Thanks, alastairq Hi, I have this website: http://www.dmucomputing.co.uk/ The problem that I am currently having is that the background colour on the navigation panel on the left hand side of the screen does not follow all the way to the bottom of the page.

Hey, i need some help. im making a little web page where you can choose what colour you want the background to be by clicking on a little coloured square. can someone please help me with the coding for this, Can somebody please explain to me why when I enter the background colour <body bgcolor="blue"> it just wipes out everything on my page from text to photos. And yes I'm a complete novice Hi all, nooby web developer here, so sorry if this question has an obvious answer, but I've searched all over for an answer to this. I've got a 'masthead' image at the top of my site, which has a colour gradient going from red to white. If I set the background colour for the element that its in to either red or white, it doesn't quite look right. What I'd really like is a different solid colour either side of the image. I was wondering: is there any way to set the background colour of one side of the image to red, and one side to white? Many thanks in advance. Hey guys, basically i'm not great with html and i've been wracking my brains trying to figure these out. (nothing has helped so far) Anyways, heres my site If you scroll to the bottom you can see the footer box, It's the same color as the posts. I want to change the footer box to white, but everything I change doesn't effect it.

Any help would be appreciated a billion Hi I have a DIV that contains a php include on my page. The main page with the DIV has a black background, and the include page has a purple background.

I want that same style of the box with the white text inside and with the same border thickness and colour. These are the colours: Inside of the form (background): #1E7CC8 The Border colour: #64A2D6 The boder thickness has to be small like the one on the sie If anyone could do this it would be much appreciated. Thank You Hi all, This is a really basic question I'm sure. I'm creating a simple HTML website for someone. I'm using Pagebreeze HTML editor. When I'm in Pagebreeze and using the 'preview' option etc, my background image appears without a problem. But when I upload the .htm file to the FTP server, and try to go to the URL, the background doesn't appear. The code I've got is just as follows: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"> <meta content="MSHTML 6.00.6000.17063" name="GENERATOR"></head> <body language="Javascript1.2" background="Lights1.jpg"> Any ideas why this might be happening? The image is definitely on the FTP site. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer. Kevin Hey People! So I've been beating my head against a wall attempting to figure this out. I'm creating a website from scratch, and my problem is that the background image that I have set, is not appearing UNDER my text or other images (like my page content) The background image is appearing above my content, or under my content. I have tried placing the html code for the background under body, head, and also I have attempted to correct it using padding-top (etc) and also margin. Again I also tried <div-id> and other things like that.... but I'm not sure on what else to try... I've done everything that I know. This is driving me nuts! Here is what I have right now....Please, if you know what I am missing from my code to fix this, let me know!!!

Hello! I have just started using HTML, and Im already stuck! I want to have a blue background, with a limited white frame (like the white frame you can see he http://xrk.no/ ). The background color is no problem, but how do I make that white frame, without using a picture? Hope this one is a easy one for you!

Thanks in ADVANCE> Thanks, Matt 479-643-4221 I used the following code in Firefox-3.0.4 (Full Screen mode) . I have two vertical frames (Video and messenger). In the video frame VLC playing on top of the video frame (Not embedded into HTML). The Video is playing correctly, except sometimes only "a black color background" comig, not always (Within the video frame, vertically left-half/right-half/Full of the frame is black color background) is appearing between VLC-video and Frame. Since I have positioned the video (top:8px; left:57px), I can noticed when above taken place. Actually, in my application VLC is independent of Firefox/HTML.l So I want to avoid the black-color background. I dont want the black color background. Actually, this is happening when skin changes, the code attached is currently having skin_10 (for resolution 1024x768). Similarly changing skin_1 for the same resolution, but cols, and rows only changing. ie. frame size is changing for different skins. (Every skins having different rows and cols) I attached 5 images, 1. bg_skin_1024_768.jpg =>skin background image 2. sample.jpg => a sample required output image. 3.sample_left_black.jpg => Error with left side black background 3.sample_right_black.jpg => Error with right side black background 3.sample_full_black.jpg => Error with full black background Please can anybody know about this issue me? thanks Kanesh <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <HTML> <head> <meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache"> <meta http-equiv="Expires" content="0"> <meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache"> </head> <frameset rows="0,*" cols="*" style="background-color:#ffffff;" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0" > <frame src="121term_ctrl.php" style="background-color:#ffffff;" name="control" scrolling="NO" framespacing="0" noresize="noresize" > <frameset style="background-image:url('./skin/skin_10/images/1024_768/bg_skin_1024_768.jpg'); background-repeat:no-repeat;" cols="704,*" margin-height="0" frameborder="no" border="0" framespacing="0" noresize="noresize"> <frame transparency="true" src="vp/play_video.php?width=704&height=658&top=57&left=8" frameborder="0" margin-height="0" scrolling="no" name="video" noresize="noresize"> <frame transparency="true" src="./skin/skin_10/messenger.php?width=320&height=768&top=200&left=20" frameborder="0" margin-height="0" scrolling="no" name="messenger" noresize="noresize"> </frameset> </frameset> <noframes> </noframes> </HTML> Hi there, I have the almost impossible task to create a newsletter (text + pics) that contains a background image and needs to be distributed using Microsoft Business Contact Manager (Microsoft Outlook add-on). So, can you tell me if background images are 100% good html or not? If yes what could I be doing wrong (CSS, links to images...) Please help Marco Hey guys, please forgive me if this has already been posted but im at a total loss I'm having major issues with getting a background to fit properly around my html page. I wonder if you can help me. the code i have is this style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); background-image: url(http://i488.photobucket.com/albums/rr248/kingofkingspoker/borderbg.png);" id="homediv" onload="start();" alink="#000000" link="#000000" vlink="#000000"> I really have no idea how to fit it to the whole screen so it doesn't look like the border around the BG image is cutting half the page up and repeating. If this cannot be corrected is there a code i can add to it to implement a border around the actual web page in full, as if to say i could remove the background image, have it has standard white but use a code to implement a border that would look fine on all computers. Plz Help Hi, I have a table with a background image. i want that this background image adjust itself dynamically according to the size of the table. Can this be achieved. can anyone post any technique of doing this? Thanks in advance geniuses htmlgroom |
