Link Background with CSS

If you look at
this
site and see how all the link boxes, when covered with the
mouse the whole box changes colour, I wanted to know how to do that
with CSS? Because at the moment all I can manage to do is only the
text and not the entire box?

Add display:block; to the CSS for the A element, as here:
.menu A {
color:white;
display:block;
background-color:#3E3E3E;
padding:2px 3px 2px 10px;

Linked Image with CSS Hover background Color Jerks in IE8

Please see http://www.rrmuseumpa.org/about/musviews/index.shtml and hover over any of the five slideshow images, using IE8. Note that the hover causes a jerk when the assigned background color for hover kicks in, apparently by adding some vertical margin at botton. It's fine in all other browsers.
What I want is for any image that serves as a link to not have a border and to not pick up the default hover background color, and to not cause the "jerk" in IE8.
CSS file is at http://www.rrmuseumpa.org/css/main.css . Specific css would be most appreciated.
Thanks.
Jim

The very last style rule states
/* HACK FOR IE: to stabilize appearance of menu items; the slash in float is to keep IE 5.0 from parsing */
@media screen, projection
ul.MenuBarHorizontal li.MenuBarItemIE
display: inline;
f\loat: left;
background: #FFF;
color: #FFF;
This is a white backgorund and white text. Simply change the background colour to #2565B2

Link styles with CSS

I have a web page with 2 navigations - one horizontal under
the header and the other located vertically down the left of the
page.
The text colour styles of each are different.
So I wanted to allocate seperate a:link a:visit a:hover
a:active to both navigations, to do this I have used the following
css:
For the horizontal navigation:
.table2 a:link, a:visited {
text-decoration:none;
color:#FFFFFF;
.table2 a:hover, a:active {
color: #8da2c4;
For the second navigation:
.table3 a:link, a:visited {
text-decoration:none;
color: #717578;
.table3 a:hover{
color:#333333;
However when uploaded, instead of the horizontal navigation
returning to white once visited, it turns grey - the colour of the
second navigation. The browser (IE) obviously has trouble
seperating the assigned link styles even though I have tried
targeting more specifically.
Does anyone know of a way around this, if there is a way at
all??!
Much appreciated

Pseudo-classes and container styles are what you need - here
are some
tutorials.

Trouble with css background

Hey guys, I am having trouble with some code. I have nested divs inside of a container dive for the body copy, but I am having trouble with the background of the container div going behind the nested divs. I only have this issue with the background when I go to float the nested divs.
Below is a copy of my html and a copy of my linked css style sheet.

How to set background ChoiceBox item color to ChoiceBox with css?

How to set background ChoiceBox item color to ChoiceBox with css?
I need to change items list backgound color.
I tried with following code, but it doesnt helps:
.choice-box .context-menu {
-fx-backgound-color: red;
.choice-box .menu-item{
-fx-background-color: red;

In Java 8, either of your selectors should work.
In Java 7 (JavaFX 2.2), you need the following workaround:
#choice-box-menu-item {
-fx-background-color: red ;

Help with CSS; styling links

I have a
#wrapper
#content
#content a:link (coding that works fine)
..and inside content I want to create some 'buttons' so tried this
#buttons
#buttons a:link (different code)
In Dreamweaver it looks fine and dandy,(left side DW, rightside is a preview)
but when I test in a browser, fail.
Uploaded it to the server, fail.
#content a:link, #content a:visited, #content_full a:link, #content_full a:visited {
    color:#030;
    text-decoration: none;
    line-height: 120%;
#content a:hover, #content_full a:hover {
    color:#063;
    text-decoration: underline;
    line-height: 120%;
Basically just turns the links green, with an underline when you hover. There are two types of content divs, one stretches the width of the wrapper... the other allows for a side bar.
Then:
#buttons {
    background-color: #FFF;
    margin-top: 8px;
    clear: both;
#buttons a:link {
    color: #FFF;
    font-size: 18px;
    line-height: 120%;
    background-color: #069;
        margin: 5px;
    text-decoration: none;
And that fails.
Thoughts?

Well, it failed again BUT once again, I think i have the solution. I added code for all states of a:link for the new 'button' (i.e. a:hover, etc..) THAT seemed to fix it.

How do I make text fill an oval and then place behind a background layer with CSS

Hi everyone,
I created a framed oval picture as a background with drop shadow for my portfolio site.
See: www.adjacentdimensionsmedia.com
Now I want to put text on a clear "glass window/png" that fills an oval that will go inside the frame and I would like it to slide up behind the black background frame, but on top of the image.
I would like to move the scroll bar so that the text which will be about my services can slide up and fit the ovals you scroll down.
I tried:
div class= "circle"
</div>
.circle {
shape-inside:
polygon (0px 150px)
and it didn't work.
I thought I would use Z-axis to get it behind background but I am not sure if that will work.
any thoughts?

I had never heard of shape-inside before, so I did some poking around.
Looks like shape-inside is an experimental feature with little to no browsers supporting it.
On top of that, as far as I can tell from the documentation about it, a single set of coordinates with the polygon value won't do anything either way. You need at least 3 coordinates with polygon (making a triangle as the minimum). And that is only for the reflow of content, it has nothing to do with the actual shape of the element it's being used on.
If done correctly, in combination with the border-radius attribute, one could create a circle with a container element, then theoretically use a many sided polygon with shape-inside to force the content of the circular container to take on a relatively circular flow (think octagon in a circle).
I wasn't able to make any shape-inside settings work in any current browser though.
EDIT: Actually, I was able to get it to work in Chrome, with the -webkit- prefix and a newly downloaded version of Opera using the standard nomenclature. Definitely not ready for prime time. For shape-outside testing anyway. Shape-inside I still can't get to function in either.

                                <p>The capital city of British Columbia, Victoria boasts many historic buildings and some of the most fascinating museums in Western Canada. The city benefits from one of Canada's mildest climates, which allows its residents to pursue outdoor pleasures all year round.
Victoria enjoys some of the country's most exhilarating scenery: there's an ocean or mountain vista around every corner, while the city's flower gardens are famous the world over. Whether your taste runs to golfing, hiking, biking and fishing or you're more the shopping, dining and theatre type, there are no end of delights for you and your family in Victoria – the city was included in the Top 10 Family Vacations in Canada in the TripAdvisor 2011 Travelers' Choice awards.
Established in 1843 by James Douglas as a fort for the Hudson's Bay Company, Victoria's British ancestry is apparent in the double-decker buses, horse-drawn carriages, formal gardens, and tearooms. The city is now a cosmopolitan centre with a lively entertainment scene and a wonderful array of attractions.</p>

Problem with CSS in page I have written [SOLVED]

There is a php page I have created at work which works fine with Firefox 3.6.
In one specific page Firefox 4 does not show correctly a table with CSS.
I tried to remove the css and just have the table with no styling but the problem persists.
the php file is this:

Problem with CSS styles and Previewing in Firefox

Hello,
I recently rebooted my Mac OS X system (leopard) and reinstalled Adobe CS3. Before this I had virtually no problems with Dreamweaver and everything was running smoothly. However, now whenever I preview my pages in Safari, the CSS code is completely mangled.
Also, my site won't preview in Firefox unless I close any existing tabs and exit Firefox completely. I have no idea why these problems are occurring, but I have pasted the code below so any advice would be extemely helpful.

hey there,
thanks so much for the insight on the firefox issue. hopefully they fix that soon.
as for the css, i do have a screenshot of what's happening. the background image seems to repeat after the navigation bar instead of keeping the transparent background. it's extremely odd and i've never seen it before. it can be seen in the attached photo.
thanks again for your help,

Problem with css in creating repeat-y bckgnd

Hi, I'm trying to put a background that repeats vertically
below an image at the top of the webpage, so that the top image
looks like one long continuous line as you scroll down. I selected
the image at the top of the page, and then inserted the div tag for
the background image to repeat. I made sure wrap around selection
was on. In Dreamweaver, you can see the background below the image,
just where I want it. But when I preview in browser (both Firefox
and Safari), I don't see the background, just the image at the top.
Why is the background still invisible??
Here is my css:
#bannerright {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 225px;
#bg {
background-image: url(../images/navbar.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-position: left;
left: 0px;
#bannerleft {
position: absolute;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
background-image: url(../images/navbar.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
#backgroundnav {
position: absolute;
height: 100%;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
background-image: url(../images/navbar.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
width: 100%;
And here is the html:
<!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=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Home</title>
<link href="layout.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
/>
</head>
<body>
<div id="bannerleft">
<div id="backgroundnav"><img
src="../images/banner_lft.jpg" width="225" height="198"
/></div>
</div>
<div id="bannerright"><img
src="../images/banner_rt.jpg" width="475" height="198"
/></div>
</body>
</html>
I am using a Mac Book Pro, with Dreaweaver MX 2004. Thanks in
advance.
Rose

Your <div id="bannerleft"> will only be as tall as the
content within it. In this case you only have an image with the
height of 198px contained within the div and an image within the
<div="backgroundnav"> of unspecified height. Therefore the
background image that you have applied to it will only repeat for
198px or the height of the navbar.jpg if that image is taller than
198px. Basically the background image (navbar.jpg) in
<div="backgroundnav"> will be obscured by the banner_lft.jpg.
If you want a background image to repeat vertically (y-axis)
further than the div it contains then you must specify a div of an
appropriate height or include more content within the contained
divs to force the height.
Additionally, absolutely positioned divs take their reference
point for positioning from their nearest positioned ancestor. In
the absence of a positioned ancestor the div takes it reference
point from the html element.

Using templates with css in mx

Hi,
I'm sure I'm being stupid but it's driving me insane - I'm
weaning myself off table based layout and using css (for the first
time) in mx. I'm (finally) happy with my stylesheet and how it's
all looking but can't seem to use css with a template - when I save
the page as a template and preview the style sheet does not seem to
be attached.
Any help MUCH appreciated,
Katy

> like easier with css?
Very definitely!
Good grief - your stylesheet is ... big. Usually so many
custom classes
mean that the stylesheet is WAY overengineered.....
I'll take a look though.

Bg color with css

I am using a background image and color with css. My image
looks fine but I can't get the background color I want.
Here is the code.
<style type="text/css" title="mystyles"
media="all">body
{ background-color: #000000;
background-image: url(../bgimg.jpg);
color: #5d665b;
margin-top: 70px;
margin-left: 120px;
margin-right: 50px;
margin-bottom: 70px;
font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size:small;
line-height: 180% }
p { text-indent: 3em }
h3 {color: #966b72; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman",
Times, serif }
h1 {color: #966b72; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman",
Times, serif }
</style>
Thanks for the help.

Can you provide a link to the site?
> { background-color: #000000;
> background-image: url(../bgimg.jpg);
Are you aware that, without a background-repeat: no-repeat
rule in the CSS
rule for the body tag, your background image will tile and
fill the screen
so your black background color won't be visible?

Centering a file in the browser vertically with CSS

I remember there was an issue doing this with tables and I am
wondering
if this is also hard to to with CSS. I would like to center a
flash
file, both vertically and horizontally. I have it centered
horizontally
but not vertically. This is what I have so far.
body {
background-color: #fff;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
#container {
width: 800px;
margin: 0 auto;
background-color:25231a;
My flash file is inside of the container in the html file.
What do I need to do, to get this centered vertically as
well?
I tried this, but with no luck.
#container {
width: 800px;
margin: auto;
background-color:25231a;
Thank you for any help!

If I don't hear anything positive from Adobe about fixing it,
I am going to
be much more vocal.

Is it possible to style a tag button with CSS?

hello,
i'm currently using button images for Add to Cart etc. but would prefer to use CSS.
any idea how the html should look to facilitate this?
atm if i change it from an image to text, i.e. {tag_addtocart,Add to Cart}, the CSS formatting is ignored and i'm left with just a standard grey button.
regards and thanks.
Frank

For those out there that could use more details on styling the buy button ...
This works because this CSS overrides the existing Business Catalyst CSS. If you don't already have a separate CCS file, create one - for example "custom.css", and place the link to the CSS isle in you page header.
Here is the CSS example. The button I've already created for the website is .my-red-btn and I have simply added .productSubmitInput after it so it calls the same style (remember to add the comma if you are applying this style to more than one class name, as I have in this example).
.my-red-btn, .productSubmitInput {
          color: #ffffff;
        font-weight: 600;
          background-color: #FF0000;
          -webkit-border-radius: 4px;
          -moz-border-radius: 4px;
          border-radius: 4px;
        border-radius: 4px;
Then add the tag to the module (Site Manager > Modules template > Online Shop Layouts > Individual Large Products) like this:
{tag_addtocart,Buy me now}
Good luck.
