*edit* I need some help with spacing things. I want it closer rather than farther away?





I am trying to figure out how to change the color of my links? And remove the underline and change in color when you crossover the link?
<a href="http://freewebs.com/immortalkiss/fanart.html" target="_blank">Example</a>

Next - I would like to know how your turn the text in the header into different links?

Lastly - When the site isn't opened to full sceen the tables move out of place. I was wondering if there was a code that would keep those in one spot?

Thanks so much. :bye2:

put this in between the <head> and </head> tags:

Code:
<style type="text/css">
a:link {color: COLOR;text-decoration:none;} /* unvisited link */
a:visited {color: COLOR;text-decoration:none;} /* visited link */
a:hover {color: COLOR;text-decoration:none;} /* mouse over link */
a:active {color: COLOR;text-decoration:none;} /* selected link */
</style>

COLOR is the color you want links to be (like blue or black or #FFFFFF)

You can either break the header into pieces and put them in a table, or use an imagemap: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_map.asp
^Tell me if you want me to try to explain that.

in the <table> tag, put
Code:
style="position:absolute;top:##px;left:###px;"

where ## is how far it should be from the top of the page and ### is how far it should be from the left of the page (just try different numbers until it looks how you want)

What things do you want spaced differently?
(It depends on what/where the things are.)

Post subject: 
see example. I am going to make the lines thicker, and then try and put the text on top of the lines. If I can figure it out.
Thanks so much for your help. :-D

I'm still not sure I understand what you mean.

I'm assuming you mean the links on the right. Do you want the lines to be a background for the "title" for each section of links? Or do you want the "title" be right above the line, with (almost) no space between them?

adding
Code:
style="margin-top: 0px;"

to the hr tag, giving this:
Code:
<HR WIDTH="100%" COLOR="#000000" SIZE="2" style="margin-top: 0px;">

will let text be directly on top of the line

likewise,
Code:
style="margin-bottom: 0px;"

will let text be directly below the line

combining them works like so:
Code:
style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"


or
Code:
style="margin: 0px;"

which also takes some space off the ends of the line

Great. Thank you so much for your help.


I am working on my blend challenge site first since there is less content.
<a href="http://www.freewebs.com/backtobroadway/submit.html" target="_blank">BacktoBroadway</a>

I was looking everywhere for a code for a mail form. I found the code and the form looks farely good. The submit area is not working. Do I need a host for that.

Here is the code I used.

instead of
Code:
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="" target="_blank">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="to" VALUE="dreams-in-the-dark@hotmail.com">


try

Code:
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="mailto:dreams-in-the-dark@hotmail.com">

I tried that and it didn't work for me. It was probably the way I was doing it. I ended up using a free form service (Response-O-Matic).

Ok. That's the better way of doing it, anyway, because the other way will open the person's email program to send the info.
