CSS question - complete Novice

i know some of you people must dispair at novice questions
but we all need to start somewhere don't we. i have had dreamweaver
for 18 months and have hardly used it but now i am starting to
learn. basically my problem is this...and i bet it's an old
chesnut.
i have two different places on my website that have links,
one with a green background, that on hover turns white.... thats in
the settings. thing is i want an email link thats on a white
background in the same page, i have tried different colurs but it
just doesn't look right.

either the CSS file or change something in settings that allow me
to do this.
sorry if this has been asked before...thanks for your help,

Pseudo-classes and container styles are what you need - here

  • 2 CSS Questions on my layout

    Hi everyone, I have two CSS questions regarding my layout.
    First off, it is located at:
    http://robles.clunet.edu/~ssmi/tsr9/tsr9template.html
    The CSS is embeded in the file (it will linked from a
    different file once I am done with this design, but beside the
    point)
    My first question is about how I can keep the right top image
    from being bumped down to the next line when the window is resized.
    I want it to squeeze into some, but then at a point have the scroll
    bars kick in.
    My other question is how I could make the title image "The
    Scott Report" centered between the two left and right images up
    top.
    Could anyone help out?
    Thanks a lot!

    I have a Windows 8.1 and it's even running slow.  I'm a complete novice with computers (I've only had this one for 3 weeks) and I'm probably doing something wrong, but I haven't a clue what.
    The tools are not responding when I try to use them.  Some of them work sometimes, but not others and some don't work at all.  I'm in a design class online and I need these tools desperately.  I have an assignment due Monday and I'm losing the whole weekend because Tech Support is only open M-F!
    Any help anyone can give me will be appreciated.

  • Have a CSS question

    I have a picture i am trying to put inside a div that has a class already which makes pictures have a frame around them when i insert them into it, which is fine for the main image but i am trying to add an extra image in there and i dont want that frame to be there.
    I will attach a picture and a link to the site i am talking about.
    If anyone can help me with this CSS question or how i can go about getting rid of the frame around the step 1, step 2 and step 3.

    Thanks!

    Take the frame class out the div and apply it to select images like this:
    <div>
    <img class="frame" src="step1.jpg">
    <img src="picture1.jpg">
    </div>
    <div>

  • A complete novice HELP!

    I am a complete novice, any help would be appreciated. I have written this short programme to display two buttons in a window on screen
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    public class ButtonExample extends WindowAdapter{
    private Frame mainFrame;
    private Panel topPanel;
    private Button buttonOne;
    private Button buttonTwo;
    // constructor
    public ButtonExample(){
    mainFrame = new Frame("Button Test Example" );
    topPanel = new Panel();
    buttonOne = new Button("I'm button one");
    buttonTwo = new Button("I'm button two");
    mainFrame.setSize( 300, 75 );
    mainFrame.addWindowListener(this);
    topPanel.setLayout( new FlowLayout() );
    topPanel.add(buttonOne);
    topPanel.add( buttonTwo);
    mainFrame.add( topPanel );
    mainFrame.setVisible(true);
    // close the frame when clicks the close button
    public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
    System.exit(0);
    // Main program started
    public static void main( String args[] ){
    new ButtonExample();
    I am trying to familiarise myself with subclasses and want to create a subclass of java.awt.Button to override the background and foreground colours and have come up with this
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    public class ColorButton extends Button{
    public ColorButton(){
    super();
    setBackground (Color.red);
    setForeground (Color.yellow);
    is this correct? If so how do i call this from within the main ButtonExample programme? As a complete novice i am just not sure how to do this, please help!

    Assuming that your main program works (I've not really looked at it), then, through the magic of inheritance, all you need to do to use your new and improved buttons is to change these lines:
    private Button buttonOne;
    private Button buttonTwo;
    buttonOne = new Button("I'm button one");
    buttonTwo = new Button("I'm button two");To read
    private ColorButton buttonOne;
    private ColorButton buttonTwo;
    buttonOne = new ColorButton("I'm button one");
    buttonTwo = new ColorButton("I'm button two");And all should be well
    Good luck

  • Am a complete novice, have downloaded Mackeeper to do a speediest.  I need to uninstall but don't know whether it has encrypted any files.

    I am a complete novice, and I have downloaded MacKeeper.   I need to uninstall it.   I have only checked my Mac speed on it and have done nothing else.   Is there a complete idiots guide.   I don't know if any files have been encrypted on it.

    Do not run MacKeeper again!  It's tantamount to maleware and does more harm than good.

  • Css code completion everywhere?

    Would it be possible to make css code completion work in these two situations?:
    inside style="" attributes
    inside things like background-image:

    Taking an example like 'box-shadow', what sort of code hints would you want to see?
    Most of the individual bits of the property value are lengths in pixels, so it probably wouldn't make sense to show any hints for them individually.  But we could, for example, show hints for the entire value by just listing other 'box-shadow' values you've used elsewhere in your code (making reuse easy in cases where you're not using a preprocessor).  Is that the sort of thing you'd want?

  • CheckboxDatagrid (extended) CSS question

    Hello
    In our application we make use of the CheckBoxDataGrid, which rocks.
    We are playing with the CSS and noticed that we arent able to change the "chromeColor" property, in CSS. Only in the MXML.
    I would like to set the style in the CheckBoxDataGrid super class, but I do not see a way to specify "headerStyleName".
    How and where would that occur in an extended class? Would it need to happen in the constructor?
    Also, how would you re-assign the CSS, in ActionScript, in this extended DataGrid class? Any ideas?
    Any help is appreciated, thanks folks!

    However, presenting information in a way that requires users to scroll the viewport horizontally is clunky. This will be particularly true in combination with an IR. Think about the user experience: is there an alternative way of displaying this information?

  • A complete novice- still need help please!

    I am a complete novice, any help would be appreciated. I have written this short programme to display two buttons in a window on screen and with a little help from Lee i have incorporated the ColorButton subclass (see below for code).
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    public class ButtonExample extends WindowAdapter{
    private Frame mainFrame;
    private Panel topPanel;
    private ColorButton buttonOne;
    private ColorButton buttonTwo;
    // constructor
    public ButtonExample(){
    mainFrame = new Frame("Button Test Example" );
    topPanel = new Panel();
    buttonOne = new ColorButton("I'm button one");
    buttonTwo = new ColorButton("I'm button two");
    mainFrame.setSize( 300, 75 );
    mainFrame.addWindowListener(this);
    topPanel.setLayout( new FlowLayout() );
    topPanel.add(buttonOne);
    topPanel.add( buttonTwo);
    mainFrame.add( topPanel );
    mainFrame.setVisible(true);
    // close the frame when clicks the close button
    public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
    System.exit(0);
    // Main program started
    public static void main( String args[] ){
    new ButtonExample();
    I am trying to familiarise myself with subclasses and want to create a subclass of java.awt.Button to override the background and foreground colours and have come up with this
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    public class ColorButton extends Button{
    public ColorButton(){
    super();
    setBackground (Color.red);
    setForeground (Color.yellow);
    On modifying the main programme to incorporate ColorButton it will not change the background color, only the Button color and will not display text in the buttons themselves, any suggestions would be appreciated

    If you use the constructor:
    buttonOne = new ColorButton("I'm button one");you have to write it:
    class ColorButton extends Button {
       public ColorButton(String text) {
          super(text);
    }

  • Complete novice needs help

    Hi folks
    I hope you can indulge me. I am a mature student studying with the Open University in the UK. In order to complete my degree I have to produce a (small) project (doesn't have to have full functionality) based on a Network application. I am limited to using Java and to some extent the software provided for me, which in this case is JBuilder3.5 (yes I know it's old!). I can, within reason download further software providing my tutor is ok with it but here's the rub I have no idea what I actually need. There is so much to read through and I am feeling a bit thick because I cannot pin anything down.
    This is where I would appreciate any help from you experts. My project subject is a browser which can interpret web pages and then configure them to be displayed in a fromat that is prefered by the user not the author. I can build the GUI but I am stuck when it comes to building the functionality behind it. ie what packages do I need to download that can recognise XML/HTML tags in order to rearrange the display? Am I even on the right track? Is it actaully possible?
    Because the project is only worked over a small period I don't need full functionality but have elected to deal with input/output fields, text placemnt/display/font (infromationl), graphic placement/deletion. I may also be alowed to update my version of Jbuilder.
    I would be so grateful if somebody could at least point me in the right direction. I need to add here that I feel so stupid that I need replies in very plain english :o)

    Hi ddossot
    Saw your note about using a proper IDE unfortunately I am obliged to use the one provided by my UNI. Reason being the markers of my project may not be up to date with other IDE's. Though I may be allowed to use a newer version of JBuilder. I am waiting to hear if I have permission to do so.
    Here's another thick question. from what I remember, when studying Java last year, it has a number of libraries that can be imported to a project. When I download the HTML and XML stuff are they just added to the libraries already in place and if so how is it done.
    ps hope they also have tutorials with them for the coding :o(
    One last question; am I in the right forum for this sort of query or is there a novice one for thicko's like me? :o)

  • Some CSS Questions and Firebug Behaviour.

    Here's my page: http://martcol.co.uk/brightontherapyservice/
    It's a developing site so, I'm still working on it and I know it might be a bit scruffy in places - sorry.
    I'll start with the Firbug thing first.
    If I check Outline > Outline Block Level Elements why do some of the outlines seem to start left and off the screen and why do some of the outlines not form completely?
    If you are able to outline these elements in FireFox this is what I mean:
    A is a border that shoots off to the left and B is an example of a border that does not form completely.  I am asking this because obviously, I don't understand it and more, because I wonder if it indicates something bad.  Which leads me to my next question.
    On some of the individual image panels the box-shadow gets shaved off top and right.  I can make it come back by fiddling with margins but it is such a fiddle I don't know which is the best way to sort it out.
    Thanks
    Martin
    PS: My next question will be about lining up the bottom text panel.  I thought I'd wait to see how you all get on with these questions but since you're here, how can I line that up with the image panels?
    Thanks again.
    BTW - it's WordPress

    A1: if you don't need nating, simply do not use a group.
    A2: route the traffic without checking if it hits a content rule.
    Your acl 1 will permit all traffic and nat traffic from 10.10.10.0/24 when hitting a specific content rule.
    Your acl 2 is the same but if you have more content rules the traffic 10.10.10.0/24 will simply be routed and will not hit any of them.
    We usually use the bypass for cache devices that would need to access a server directly.
    A3: ACL are not mandatory. By default the CSS permits all traffic. If you enable acl so, you then need to explicitly permit the traffic you want to have across the CSS.

  • Complete novice needs answer to AWE64 qu

    hello
    i've just bought an old 90's programme of KOAN generati've music on a floppy. the programme plays the soundcard like a synthesiser but it was designed to be played with specific soundcards, namely Creative Labs AWE64 / AWE32 / SB32, or else it will sound completely wrong.
    because these soundcards are obsolete, can anyone tell me what soundcard i should get (for a laptop pc) that will reproduce the sound exactly the same as the above soundcards?
    sorry if this sounds like i haven't got a clue but the truth is, er, i haven't!
