CSS names, just two Options

[protos]

what's the css name for the blog text? I seem to have forgotton it and can't pict it up from reading other layout codes.

and I want to know the CSS name for the border of "private module" or whatever.
the one that says: New Weblog Entry, Public Preview, etc....

.blogbody, I think.. o_o

And I don't know the CSS title for the border, but you can change it on your CLAF.

I'm writing a layout. Doing it in claf won't help me

you ought to learn how to use the DOM explorer.

anyway, load up xanga private to understand what's what.
the class of the whole "pirvate module" (which is a <table>) is "announcements." the top row of cells are all <th> rather than <td> so you can do something like "table.announcements th {}" to customize those. the second row is just a huge spanned <td> cell, which you can customize with "table.announcements td {}."

I don't really understand what you said but

table.announcements th {}
and td dn't seem to work

what do I put in the brackets? color: #FFFFFF?

[threepointone]

whatever CSS you want. If you want a border, just lookup the css for a border and put it into the brackets. It should be something like border: 1px solid #000000 Note that the "css name" refers to the actual "private module" itself, not the border.

[protos]

ok your really not helping me.

This is what I have for the annocement box

CODE

table.announcements td, table.announcements th {display: none; color: #FFFFFF; border: 0px solid}

why is it not working? I also can't change the font color for the blog

CODE

.blogbody {
/* this edits the other the place where the  blog is */
background-color: transparent;
family-font: Wingdings;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-color: #FFFFFF;
BORDER: 0px solid;}

[*digital.fragrance*]

Okay for a border:

CODE

table.announcements td, table.announcements th {display: none; color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #000000;}

for text color:

CODE

.blogbody {
/* this edits the other the place where the  blog is */
background-color: transparent;
family-font: Wingdings;
color: #FFFFFF;
BORDER: 0px solid;}

The "color" should edit the font color.

[protos]

The "color" should edit the font color.

should being the operative word. It won't even change the font to Wingdings

[*Azarel*]

To change the font, you should have "font-family" instead of "family-font."

[protos]

ok

the font color thing isn't working for me. What's going on

[*Azarel*]

Do you have anything put in the CLAF color field? It might be overriding your CSS. I can't think of any other reason that it wouldn't work.

[demolished]

You try putting css at different location.

Yes, it does matter where you put it.

[protos]

I have blue in the Claf field. All my code is in Custom Header space. but that shouldn't be affecting it. I moved all my CSS to website stats. and nothing changed

[protos]

never mind, I fixed it myself.
