HTML - Please Help Choose A Nice Background Color Theme For My Site
please help choose a nice background color theme for my site...
I'm not savy with html...I'm trying to find the code so I can change this "plain jane" background color of my "template made site". Can I get some opinions on a color theme and ALSO where I would insert the color codes. Not looking for a "in your face" attack..just anything better than the blah brown/tan colors! TIA Similar TutorialsFirst of all, I have only just started this site, and it's only ever going to be a very basic HTML site. It's going to be a ground guide for Non-League football. Here is one of the completed ground pages so far. Most of the links don't actually take you to anything in perticular, so don't shout! I'd just like a couple of ideas on how to improve the general look of the site. Thanks! Code: http://79.170.43.200/adp-design-demos.com/nlgg/wadham_lodge.html Don't worry about the ugly domain, it's only going to be like that during testing 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! So I'm rather rusty with html and building a low budget site. At www.cccathens.com I have a background image set to a particular width well at www.cccathens.com/about_us I'm not using the same background image. But I would like the same look as far as having the white on each side. Is there a way to set the background color of the page so it has the same effect? Thank you, Todd I'm just wondering how I can find the code to change for the background color of my site. Someone else designed it, and they have left the project so I can't ask where it is. Here is the index.html file, where I'm guessing I should be able to find the place to change it (?) <!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>Baller Magazine</title> <script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <link href="baller.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- function MM_swapImgRestore() { //v3.0 var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x.oSrc; } function MM_preloadImages() { //v3.0 var d=document; if(d.images){ if(!d.MM_p) d.MM_p=new Array(); var i,j=d.MM_p.length,a=MM_preloadImages.arguments; for(i=0; i<a.length; i++) if (a[i].indexOf("#")!=0){ d.MM_p[j]=new Image; d.MM_p[j++].src=a[i];}} } function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01 var p,i,x; if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) { d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);} if(!(x=d[n])&&d.all) x=d.all[n]; for (i=0;!x&&i<d.forms.length;i++) x=d.forms[i][n]; for(i=0;!x&&d.layers&&i<d.layers.length;i++) x=MM_findObj(n,d.layers[i].document); if(!x && d.getElementById) x=d.getElementById(n); return x; } function MM_swapImage() { //v3.0 var i,j=0,x,a=MM_swapImage.arguments; document.MM_sr=new Array; for(i=0;i<(a.length-2);i+=3) if ((x=MM_findObj(a[i]))!=null){document.MM_sr[j++]=x; if(!x.oSrc) x.oSrc=x.src; x.src=a[i+2];} } //--> <!-- function openwin() { window.open('http://www.goodglobalgames.org/js/', 'win','width=870,height=700,status=no,scrollbars=yes,directories=no,menubar=no,resizable=no,toolbar= no'); } // --> </script> <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- function openwindow() { window.open("contact.html", "", "width=600,height=650"); } // --> </script> <SCRIPT SRC="select.js" LANGUAGE="javascript"></SCRIPT> <style type="text/css"> <!-- .style4 {color: #FFFFFF} --> </style> </head> <body onload="MM_preloadImages('images/head-o_05.jpg','img/defblog2.1-o.jpg','img/signup-o.gif')"> <div style="width:940px; margin: 0 auto;"> <table border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" style="margin:0 auto; width:940px;"> Or is it in the css stylesheet? I would appreciate any help someone out there can provide. Thank you Hi Guys, Thanks in advance for any help by the way. I am currently slightly overhauling my webpage - www.adamhuckle.com - which as you can see has a white background. I would like to change the background to black if possible, is this as simple as I am hoping it is? I have tried inserting a "<body bgcolor="#000000">" but this didnt work. How would I do this, from the little HTML knowledge I have I have noted that "<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css" type="text/css"/>" seems responsable for the link color (which when hovered goes from black to red). Can this be over ridden? Thanks guys, I have a dropdown menu and was wondering how I could change the bg color to black. This is my code for it: <div class="c2"> <form name="jump"> <select name="menu" onchange="location=document.jump.menu.options[document.jump.menu.selectedIndex].value;"> <optgroup label="Games"> <option>Choose an Option</option> <option value="http://broggini.webs.com/1.swf">Age Of War</option> <option value="http://broggini.webs.com/4.swf">Bloons</option> <option value="http://broggini.webs.com/5.swf">BoxHead Zombie Wars</option> <option value="http://broggini.webs.com/3.swf">Bubble Shooter</option> <option value="http://broggini.webs.com/6.swf">Hapland</option> <option value="http://broggini.webs.com/7.swf">Hapland2</option> <option value="http://broggini.webs.com/8.swf">Hapland3</option> <option value="http://broggini.webs.com/11.swf">Kitten Cannon</option> <option value="http://broggini.webs.com/12.swf">Line Rider</option> <option value="http://broggini.webs.com/2.swf">Mario</option> <option value="http://broggini.webs.com/9.swf">The Impossible Quiz</option> <option value="http://broggini.webs.com/10.swf">The Impossible Quiz 2</option> <option value="http://www.primarygames.com/arcade/action/dunebuggy/index.htm">Dune Buggy</option> <!-- --></optgroup> </select Hi, I am trying to add a bgcolor to a site, however, it does not display in Firefox except when I remove the following line from the HTML code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> Is the above line necessary?

I have a general background to the body of the page and it remains fixed while the page itself scrolls (so I can't just created a darkened JPG for the table cell background). Any suggestions? Hi, i want the background color of a div to only span a percentage of the div. For example HTML Code: <div style="width: 90%; padding: 1%; background: green;">50%</div> But i only want the green background colour to span the percentage (in this case 50%) of the div. Is this possible, and if so can somebody point me in the right direction? Thankyou. Hello eveybody, I have a question i am fairly new to the HTML scene.

It hasn't worked... not quite sure why. Here is the site again: Thesoulofashark.com Cheers How would I add a background color to the sides of my web page? I know how to add a background color in css, but I would like to only add it to 20% on the left and 20% on the right with 60% left for content in the middle. Is this possible? I want to rebuild a website, and I want to have a button that gives people the option of three background color choices. How can I do that? How can I toggle the background-color of a div onclick? For example, I have a div that has a background color of #EEE. I would like this to change to #2E6DCC when I click on the div, and change back to #EEE when I click again. I am having difficulty though, as I seem to be only able to change the #EEE to #2E6DCC, and not change it back onclick. Any kind of help would be very appreciated. Here is my JavaScript : Code: function colortog(ele) { if (document.getElementById(ele).style.backgroundColor = "#EEE") { document.getElementById(ele).style.backgroundColor = "#2E6DCC"; } else if (document.getElementById(ele).style.backgroundColor = "#2E6DCC") { document.getElementById(ele).style.backgroundColor = "#EEE"; } else { document.getElementById(ele).style.backgroundColor = '#EEE'; } } Hi there. My site's movehumanityforward.org and I have in the bottom right area a Facebook "like" area. It looks fine in Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. But IE shows a white background for some odd reason? I'm curious why and would like to know if someone has a work-around. Thank you friends! <IFRAME SRC="leo.html" margin="0" FRAMEBORDER="0" style="background-color: black;" NAME="main" width="790" height="480" scrolling="--"></iframe> When I load just a picture into the frame, just simply a jpg as a link into the frame the background is black in mozilla/ff but white in IE? Any suggestions? Thanks, Leo Hi. I have a very discrete light blue color in the background from a previous template. It ends about halfway through the bottom area and I'd like to extend it throughout the entire page without moving/overwriting anything else please. www.movehumanityforward.com Thank you This is a coursework assignment. i've noticed on some website it gives you the option to change the color of the background too a high contrast version. is this possible without using Javascript? (html5 ideally). Obviously i'm not expecting someone to tell me what to do but a link in the right direction would be nice please |
