Hi Guys,

I have been really busy and that with running a league and a large team, I have not been able to allot the time I need in solving this problem. I was hoping you guys have the codes I need to help me out.

I have not been able to get a CSS to work properly in every asspect that I try to accomplish. I been trying to use it on our team roster page at my league.

Problem is I can never get everything to work right.

Does anyone have a code of a set up CSS page which includes background change, tables boarders, font and all the elements that I could copy. It would truely save me some time and hair lol.

Also, the proper code to link it to myleague roster page, and where do you enter the code in team editor section.

Where I have been entering it seems to give me extra symbols that I don't want.

Any help would be greeatly appreciated.... Thanks guys icon_smile.gif

Hi Squall,

Cascading Style Sheets are pretty easy once you figure out how to create your own styles. This page should help you get started:
[ Register or login to view links on this board. ]

Once you have your stylesheet created, you call it into the <head></head> section like this:
<LINK REL=stylesheet HREF="http://www.yoursite.com/stylesheet.css" TYPE="text/css">

Thanks Kelli,

I got my css working, however, I have a question. Is there anything I can do to alter the second tables header on the roster page?

It still has that ugly yellow font, where the teams you played and the rank and all is located.

Do I need to add something to the css? And where?

Thanks In avance.

And also, I am sorry about posting this question in this forum, I don't recall putting it here , must have mis-clicked the forum I wanted to enter. Thanks again...

You need to override the font tags that are telling that text to be yellow. Try adding this to your stylesheet:


th {
font: bold 18pt "Calisto MT Bold", "Bahaus 93", "Bahaus 93", "Bahaus 93";
color: silver;
border: 15px. outset #F00000;
background: url(http://www.members.aol.com:/barnabus1961/images/nuttyrain);
}


One thing to note, however. The fonts you are using in your stylesheet will only be seen by people who have those specific fonts installed on their computer. If they don't have those fonts, they'll see your page displayed using whatever default font they have set in their browser.

Ty for your quick reply Kelli icon_wink.gif

Well I added it, and it gave me the background on that second table header but the font is still yellow.

Was I suppose to replace something with that code or just add it anywhere as i did?

Please let me know and thanks again icon_wink.gif

The only way that I can see to change the color of that text is to add a style for the <font> tag. Unfortunately, that means that all of the text on your page that is controlled by a <font> tag is going to be whatever color you assign in the style.

Try it and see what happens.

font {
color: silver;
}
