this came from the basic CSS format blogring gave with a few additions. there are more tags you can add when you become familiar with CSS.

*note you can only string together CSS styles. scripts and other html formats must be separate.

CSS can get pretty long so I suggest linking it. use Dreamweaver or Frontpage [I prefer to use Notepad since it's simple and fast] and save it as a txt file. Upload it to a site and rename it into filename.CSS and use this to link it:

CODE

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com -->

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/CSS" href="http://www.sitename/filename.CSS">
<!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

most free sites allow you to save CSS. I use geocities to upload my CSS. Hope this helps

oh yeah...that'll work... just copy/paste that and edit it.
