I need a CSS Guru. I downloaded and installed NFS.Most Wanted and have been customizing it ever since. This is where I'm at.

But I have a few issues I have been dying to resolve and just can't. Maybe someone who is also highly creative, but more technically skilled then I, would find favor with my plight and help me.

1) How can I either get rid of the text "Contacting Jamie" which appears on my contact graphic or turn the text black. I've tried

CODE
.contactTable { width:300px !important; height:150px !important; background-image:url("http://dakev.com/myspace/MySpaceContact.jpg"); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-color:transparent; background-attachment:scroll; background-position:center center; padding:0px !important; .text{color:000000;font-size:8pt;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;font-style:normal;} .


and that .text part doesn't seem to work.

Also, my links up at the top... the ones that say, Home | Browse | Search etc. don't work. The only one that works is Classifieds. What's up with that?!

Finally, there is this bar of white at the bottom of my page. How can I throw a graphic in there or get rid of it?

I've been dealing with CSS for a while and usually I can get it to do what I want... but I'm just stuck here.

Any help would be greatly greatly appreciated.

Just incase you'd like to see all the CSS code... here is what I have.

CODE
What can I say? I’m Jamie Kever… strange, obscure, and just plain weird. I like it that way. I enjoy life, friends;) and everything in between. I’ve passed the 30 year milestone so I can officially call myself old, as 30 was the definition of old when I was 12. I’m grateful for every year I’m given. I live in Vicenza Italy, trying desperately to adapt to the Italian way of doing things. The big question on my mind these days… will I stay or will I go now?!

First let me say thanks for responding so quickly.

I tried both of your suggestions and neither worked.

When I added this code...

CODE
.contactTable { width:300px !important; height:150px !important; background-image:url("http://dakev.com/myspace/MySpaceContact.jpg"); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-color:transparent; background-attachment:scroll; background-position:center center; padding:0px !important;} .text{color:000000;font-size:8pt;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:none;font-style:normal;}


my contact appeared (with my picture in the background) but with the default text over it. It looked bad.

Then when I added this code...

CODE
<style type="text/css">
.whitetext12{display:none;}
</style>


The Contacting Jamie text still displayed in my contact box.

Also, I've tried my profile on several different computers. Each time I look at my profile, the menu that reads

Home | Browse | Search | Invite | Film | Mail | Blog | Favorites | Forum | Groups | Events | Videos | Music | Comedy | Classifieds

is disabled. I mean only Classifieds is linkable. This works for you?

And finally the bar I am talking about is on the very bottom of my profile. When you go to the bottom, and scroll all the way down there is a white bar at the bottom that is just out of place.

I truly look forward to what you have to say.

Very respectfully,

Jamie

Hey... thanks again biggrin.gif

Okay, I put the code exactly like what you said up. It's up now if you want to check it out.

Unfortunatly, the "Contacting Jamie" is still in the contact box.

I'm actually using Firefox... and that might be where the problem lies.

Wait a minute...

YUP! It's a browser thing.

The text in my profile box, the one where my primary picture is, is black on both IE and Firefox. However, I'd like that font color to be grey-ish... like everything else because it's easier to read.

But in the contact box, where the "message me" & "add me" and all that are, is black in IE but grey still in Firefox.

Why oh why can't the browsers get a standard down???

I don't know much about css, but I do know about inheritance. Can't I tell the text in the box that draws the profile stuff (ie. my primary pic) to make the text grey and the text in the contact box to be black?
