My frist css

wwe9112 · 12-02-2007, 11:55 PM

OK, did I do my css right. Also what else should I add. The site is gooing to be tables mostly - and IFrames. It's for SPow Construstion. He builds federal buildings. Please correct whats wrong and tell me what I did wrong. And what else I should add for this. ALso how do I add this to the html. WIll it do it self my just what I put in there. Like <link> would work for link {bluh}.

Thanks a bundle I will rep for help.

Code:

body
{
background-color:white;
text-color:black;
text-size:11px
}
p.right
{
font-color:black;
text-align:right
}
p.left
{
text-align:left;
font-color:black
}
A.link
{
color:#FF9900;
hover:#FF6600;
decoration:bold,underline
}
V.link
{
color:#666666;
hover:#FF6600;
decoration:none
}
link
{
color:#FF9900;
hover:#FF6600;
decoration:bold,underline
}

{
font-color:black;
size:11px;
}

I'm not sure if there is a tag "V"?

Use following line to attach CSS to html or any web script -

HTML Code:

<link href="aa.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

Instead of declaring font-size or color same again and again, just declaring those in body is enough for everywhere unless you need to change the values somewhere.

Your CSS looks very basic, you can consult w3schools.com or download some nice websites css and check how they are designed their sites.

I firmly believe you can download some nice CSS layouts as well.

You can add a:hover, a:active, a:visited to give anchor texts some nice look.

At the end, best of luck!

wwe9112 you are on the right track. with a little more direction you will be a pro in no time. Keep Practising.

What is used to do to improve my css skills and keep up to date with it all was keep track of large trusted sites. i.e. sony, toyota, mcdonalds.

Now i am under no cirumstances saying to copy their code at ALL but to have a look at the way they do things.

You can see any websites style sheet(s) by viewing a sites page source.
From the source code you can get the link directly to the css.

You will learn things much faster this way. I did.

Goodluck

there is no "link" tag either,
I mean there is but it does not take any formating !!!
so no point for you "link" rules.

Also consider attaching the html doc that it refers to, so we could check correct usage,

a CSS by itself is like a boat without sea, you can see that the boat looks like a boat but how would you know if it will not sink.

OK thanks. I still have to do the html. This is for a guy at my Uncles church. I'm making him a website for his business. I've never used CSS honestly. One of my uncles tought me some stuff on paper. I'm still trying to figure out how to add in table properties.

Always define "font-family" for the main text and for the <h> tags.

Also you want to define font-size, margins and paddings for the <h> tags or you will have no control how different browsers display your page.

If it's going to be tables and Iframes mostly, then no, you didn't do it right...CSS is about seperating content from design...
