HTML - Inline Color Styles For Links
How do I go about setting inline color styles for links? Yes I know use CSS but this is one case it will not work because the CSS is overriding certain links. So I just want to use inline styles for these certain links. How would I go about do that?
-Thanks Similar TutorialsHow do I change the color of my links? ok i had resolved my earlier problem of my links being spaced earlier with help fro pegasus and now i got a new problem lol. i know how to change the background and colors for my links using css in most cases by calling a.Blah:link... and so on and the :hover... but in this case it is not working. Here is my css at the moment. Code: #Nav{ width: 948px; height: 18px; border-top: 1px solid #FFA701; border-right: 1px solid #000000; border-left: 1px solid #000000; border-bottom: 1px solid #FFA701; } #Nav a{ padding: 0; margin: 0; height: 18px; color: #ffffff; text-transform:uppercase; text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; overflow: hidden; } #Nav ul li {display: inline; padding: 0px 5px;} #Nav ul {margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } my problem is that my links i want to be starting on a black background and they'll be white colored links. (which they are i'm using body bg for my page.) then i want as they are visited to stay white colored. the main thing i would like to have is that when you hover over them, the links turn black and the background of the links turn white. now i know it's easy with hover: {background:#000000} but i don't know how to place it because when i did it did not work. thx in advance edit: oops i posted this in html. (still help anyway it has somewhat to do with html probably ) ill post in css also though I already have the body tags, I want a certain section to have links of a different color. I tried <font color="#####"> but obviously that doesn't work. It seems like i should know this... but I am blank. In a nutshell: --- The following <li> tags are inline-blocks. Why does removing the closing <li> tags fix the whitespace issue? Code: <li>Item one</li> <li>Item two</li> <li>Item three</li> Versus... Code: <li>Item one <li>Item two <li>Item three The context of this question: --- From: CSS display: inline-Block: Why It Rocks, And Why It Sucks The above post is about using inline-block instead of float to position <li> elements, which is useful for making navigation bars. There is one drawback to using inline-block: (You can copy and paste the first piece of code below to see what I'm talking about.) If you restrict the <ul> to a particular width, your navbar won't display correctly, which has something to do with hitting the RETURN key between your lines of code (whitespace issues?). See below: This works fine because there we didn't hit RETURN to create a line break between each list. <li>Item One</li><li>Item Two</li> Here, we hit RETURN to put each list on a separate line and now the code doesn't display properly. The first piece of code below illustrates this problem. <li>Item One</li> <li>Item Two</li> The second piece of code solves this problem by using comments to remove the whitespace. The third piece of code solves this problem by removing the closing <li> tags. My question is, how does removing closing tags change anything? Are there any issues I should be aware of if I use this solution? Are there other contexts where I can apply a similar technique? Code: <style type="text/css"> ul#display-inline-block-example, ul#display-inline-block-example li { margin: 0; padding: 0; } ul#display-inline-block-example { width: 300px; border: 1px solid #000; } ul#display-inline-block-example li { display: inline-block; width: 100px; min-height: 100px; background: #ccc; vertical-align: top; } </style> <ul id="display-inline-block-example"> <li>Item one</li> <li>Item two</li> <li>Item three</li> </ul> Code: <style type="text/css"> ul#display-inline-block-example, ul#display-inline-block-example li { margin: 0; padding: 0; } ul#display-inline-block-example { width: 300px; border: 1px solid #000; } ul#display-inline-block-example li { display: inline-block; width: 100px; min-height: 100px; background: #ccc; vertical-align: top; } </style> <ul id="display-inline-block-example"> <li>Item one<!-- --><li>Item two</li><!-- --><li>Item three</li> </ul> Code: <style type="text/css"> ul#display-inline-block-example, ul#display-inline-block-example li { margin: 0; padding: 0; } ul#display-inline-block-example { width: 300px; border: 1px solid #000; } ul#display-inline-block-example li { display: inline-block; width: 100px; min-height: 100px; background: #ccc; vertical-align: top; } </style> <ul id="display-inline-block-example"> <li>Item one <li>Item two <li>Item three </ul> Hi, I want to change the background color of my textbox on focus and change it back to white on onblur event. Issue: When i change the back ground color for text box on focus it properly changes it. But when i leave the focus from textbox border color for text box is impacted and its changed to white. Please help so that border color for textbox is not impacted only background color should change here is the sample code <code> <html> <head> <title>Untitled Document</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> </head> <body> <p> <input name="text1" type="text" id="text1" value="textbox 1" onfocus="this.style.background ='#cad5df'" onblur="this.style.background='white'"> </p> <p> <input name="text2" type="text" id="text2" value="textbox 2" onFocus="this.style.background = 'yellow'" onBlur="this.style.background='white'"> </p> </body> </html> </code> Hello all! Does anybody noticed that font colors are treated as background color while printing in IE? I just set a <font color=#f0f0f0>MY TEST</font> or <span style="color: #f0f0f0">MY TEST</span> and, on screen, it's OK. On print preview, it goes black. I can print in grayscale only if I turn "print background images and colors" on. Does anybody has a workaround on it? It will be a watermark, so it should be printed in grayscale. I dont think I'm setting a background color, specially on first example (color of the font). Thanks! I have a social network. I want my users to be able to pic colors for certain things... I'd really like to use the GUI that twitter has for this, but that could be expensive... So how do I do it? And how do i get smilies to input text into a text box like this one... Dynamic pages are going to be hard i think Hi everyone, I hope I have posted this in the right area. This is my first time posting here. I currently have my main pages listed at the top of my site as graphics (see fussybaby.ca). I would like to potentially remove these graphics and use text links instead - I had the graphics designed for me, so I can't just go in and make new ones, however I'd like to change/rearrange the links and add some new ones. So my question is: How hard is this to do? Is this something I need to hire someone to do for me? Thanks in advance for any advice! hi some help please i want to have 2 styles on one line, first text should be bold second text should be normal the following is from my template file: <div class='header'>BOLD TEXT <a href="user_fof.php" > normal text</a> </div> this stays in the same line but both are bold, i have tried adding a class="normaltextstyle" but the color changes but it still stays bold please assist, I have been making a website for some hours now, I started off making it comply to XHTML Transitional 1.0, however, this made it incredibly difficult for me to make the website appear how I wanted in both Firefox and Internet Explorer, so I downgraded to HTML 4.0.1 and decided to use iframes instead of objects to implement another webpage. However, there are two flash files on my website that are embedded using the object property: HTML Code: <object data="flButtons.swf" width="790" height="85" style="border-width: 0px;"> </object> And HTML Code: <object data="flSarah.swf" width="230" height="380"> </object> This works fine in firefox however, in internet explorer 7 it has a weird border like thing around it, and no matter what I try, I can't get rid of it. I initially had it on the iframe but i got rid of that using "frameborder=0".. this has no such attribute. The website is: http://www.geocities.com/s.cowperthwaite/index.html (temporary host obviously ) Any help will be appreciated : ) Thanks, matthew haworth Hi, I am somewhat new to the html/design... I have made websites but only the older style that you don't see nowadays. I'm looking to start learning about the newer layouts and whatnot... Could anyone tell me how I go about making a website like this (link below)? I"m looking to make one for my photography to put it online. thanks a lot http://www.portraitsbyjafa.com/ Hi, I am having a problem with a HTML email. When sent through to Outlook 2000 All styles within tags are being re-written with "defanghtml" this in turn is turning all the styles of within the email's HTML code. This is not happening for every recipient!? Has anyone encountered this problem? Do you know what causes it? Can it be stopped? ok, so I'm taking a course in college and the question came up... basically, if I do this [p style = "text-align: right"][h3]Information[/h3][/p] It won't apply the right justifictation, though if I put the justification setting in the h3 tag it does it, or if I switch the h3 to the outside and put the style on it, it works as well. Does anyone know why this is? My guess was that the h3 resets the text's formatting properties and then formats it? Sorry, I'm a newbie Is their any shortcut to give inline css in Dreamviewer ? Since I am using Dreamviewer & I have to write Inline CSS explicitly & there is streachable facility in the control so that we can stretch & its appropriate width & height can be assign to its component ? Since I am getting it in dreamviewer & if any body knows how to do it then please let me know abt it ? Regards.... Which doctype doesn't allow for inline? Right now every line break in my code, IE creates a space in the tables. How do I get rid of this? Thanks, Alec I have display:inline and its adding in two drop boxes that it shouldnt. After the drop boxes it then stops the inline. Im new to css, have only been trying it for the past couple of days. The two drop down boxes are suppose to be on the left, under the links at the top. Can someone explain to me why inline stops where it does? Thanks. Oh yeah, the links under <li> I know their to the wrong address's. body { font-family:georgia,'times new roman',times,serif; color:#BD0A70; background-color:#F2F2F2; } ul.navbar { list-style-type: none; padding:0; width:32em; float:left; } ul.navbar li { display:inline; font-size:125%; background-color:#007BA7; margin:.10em; } ul.navbar a,ul.navbar a:visited { color:#ffffff; text-decoration:none; } ul.navbar a:hover { background:#00008B; } form.jump { /* position: absolute; */ float: left; } div.floatright { /* position: absolute; */ float: right; } h1 { clear:both; font-family:helvetica,geneva,arial,SunSans-Regular,sans-serif; } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"> <html> <head> <title>My first styled page</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="mystyle.css"> </head> <body> <a charset="ISO-8859-1"> <!-- Site navigation menu --> <ul class="navbar"> <li><a href="index.html">Change email</a> <li><a href="musings.html">Change Password</a> <li><a href="town.html">F.A.Q.</a> <li><a href="town.html">Contact</a> <li><a href="links.html">Log out</a> <li> </li> </ul> <form class="jump" action="/reredirect.php" align="left" method="post"> <input type ="text" name="userpage" size="17" value="Jump to user page" onFocus="this.value=''"> <img src="cooltext406694699.png" align="absbottom" onmouseover="this.src='cooltext406694699MouseOver.png';" onmouseout="this.src='cooltext406694699.png';" input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit"></img> </form> <div class="floatright"> <script type="text/javascript"><!-- /* 234x60, created 11/22/08 */ google_ad_slot = "0343255875"; google_ad_width = 234; google_ad_height = 60; //--> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> </div> <!-- Main content --> <table> <tr> <td> <form method="post" action="/redirect.php" name="event"> <select name="select" class="breakinline" onChange="this.form.submit()"> <OPTION SELECTED>Select friend <OPTION value="/users/sharon">name1 <OPTION value="/users/carrie">name2 <OPTION value="/users/capy">name3 <OPTION value="/users/charla">name4 </SELECT> </FORM> <td> <form id="myeventz" method="post" action="/changeevent.php" name="myevent"> <select name="myevent" class="tabletxt" onChange="this.form.submit()"> <OPTION SELECTED=>12/25 Christmas</option> <OPTION value="0101 Event One">01/01 Event one <OPTION value=" 0202Eventtwo">Remove this event <OPTION value=" ">Add a new event </SELECT> </FORM> </td> </tr> </table> <p>Select item's to remove</p> This question might be rather basic. I'm not a web-developer, though I have a lot of other coding experience. As part of an internal webpage I'm creating, I want to access a webservice that returns a string and display it on the page. The service is accessed by URL, and requires parameters that are dynamically generated base upon the request parameters, so I can't just use #include. What I want to see is something like this, where the number string is provided by the webservice: Authorization code: 1343-7205-7570-8264 I tried this: Code: Authorization code: <object type=text/plain data="http://blah/service?params"></object> IE doesn't output the resulting string. Firefox does output the string, but it's not cleanly inlined with the rest of the text. It has it's own big block of the screen that the text sits in. Is there a simple way to insert the text from a dynamically generated URL into the current page? I'd like to open an inline frame on my site. I've got the code this far; however I cannot find out how to finish it. I need to knowhow to get it to open at a certain spot on the page. So like an example would be I want it to open at spot x on a page. How would I code this to open it at that spot? Code: <html> <body> <iframe src="default.asp" width=125px height=125px></iframe> </body> </html> Well, i'm not sure i'm gonna use this snippet but i can think of plenty reasons why i might: Code: <h4 style="display:<?php print $display; ?>"> It won't validate because, quote: "character "<" is the first character of a delimiter but occurred as data." Maybe i've been staring at it too long but i don't see the difference from any other php statement, which the validator should simply not parse. ?? Thanks, Joey Hello everyone, I have a problem and it is driving me insane :/. I am trying to create 3 inline boxes (using span or div?) that are right next to one another (ie. with no borders). The two at either side are of length 25% and the middle is of length 50%. Here is my effort at coding it myself : Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> <style> body { word-spacing: 0px; } .sideWrap { top: 0px; width: 25%; height: 100px; background-color: #0CF; display: inline-block; } .sideWrap2 { top: 0px; width: 25%; height: 100px; background-color: #0CF; display: inline-block; } .center { padding: 0px; margin: 0px; left: 25%; width: 50%; height: 200px; background-color: #0F0; display: inline-block; } </style> </head> <body> <span class="sideWrap"></span> <span class="center"></span> <span class="sideWrap"></span> </body> </html> But unfortunately, this produces ... something I dont want .. as shown by the attachment. This clearly has inexplicable white borders that I have not coded :S, and the three blocks are not inline. Can anyone give a simple explanation as to how to put these in line and eliminate the border between them? Thanks in advance, mintsmike |
