342121 2005-04-06 07:17:00 Hello,

Does someone know how to create links and make them white instead and that they don't change color when they have been pressed? I tried changing color but it doesn't seem to work. They are still blue.

The other is, when I insert a picture that I want as my banner. I choose align left. What happen is there is a small gap between the left most and the top most of the page. Possible to pop it right on the top and left side of the page?

Thanks.

342122 2005-04-06 07:39:00 Place this before the body .


<style type="text/css">
<!--
. unnamed1 {
text-decoration: none;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
-->
</style>
Then add this to the a href

<a href="site . co . nz" class="unnamed1">

To do this I hilighted the text and created a new ccs style

342123 2005-04-06 11:13:00 Or you could just stick this inside your <head> tags, usually just before the closing </head> tag for me:


<style type="text/css">
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}

a, a:visited {
color: white;
}
</style>

That should fix both problems.

Your banner probably has the little gap, because unless specified, the page defualts to a slight border before the edge of the page. The following code fixes that problem


body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}

The following code changes ALL links, both before clicking on them, and after clicking on them to white.


a, a:visited {
color: white;
}

Possible to pop it right on the top and left side of the page?Are you using a table for your top banner image? You could try absoulite position tag. (sorry about spelling) Rob99 (151)

The easiest way to modify a link colour, without getting into the complexity of style sheets is to place the font colour tag in between the link tag i . e .


<a href=" . co . nz"><font color="#990000">visit PressF1</font></a>" target="_blank">pressf1 . co . nz"><font color="#990000">visit PressF1<

Your second question can be solved by changing the spacing or margins in the HTML page . In "Page Properties" (Modify > Page Properties) to set all the margin fields (leftmargin, topmargin, marginwidth, marginheight) to "0" (no quotes)

Hope this helps :)

<a href=" . co . nz"><font color="#990000">visit PressF1</font></a>Whilst" target="_blank">pressf1 . co . nz"><font color="#990000">visit PressF1< that may be the "easiest" way it is a step backwards in my opinion . I consider it well worthwhile learning CSS and using the code as suggested by Rob and mejobloggs . It is so quick and easy to play around with the colours and if you later decide to change the colour scheme it is only a two second task to do so, unlike with the <font> tags .

CSS rocks - I couldn't do without them now . :thumbs:

It takes care of all the code for you.
The hardest part was pasting the code here.

342129 2005-04-06 23:01:00 there's no doubt in my mind that CSS is great.

The reason I suggested is to keep it simple - sometimes another language in the equation is just more confusing. Learning HTML is the first step, and you have to start somewhere. There's no point jumping straight into CSS if you dont even know what the tags are in the first place.
