CSS by stoshrocket on 09-05-2005 at 07:53 PM

Yoyo dudes n dudettes, its me again, that newbie who is building his own website... lol. After (sort of) mastering HTML i got told about something called cascading style sheets, or CSS. So, i looked it up and thought what a good idea, im redesiging my website after 3 days of being online, lol. Anyway, back to the question, i have read up on all the tutorial on the trusty www.web3schools.com or summet (i cant remember the web address properly) and i was reading up on how to place the images website. But, i was wondering how to place different images to create one background, ie if you had a banner called banner.jpg, two side colums called column1.jpg and column2.jpg and a main box for text called main.jpg, how would you put this ino code to create one flush background??? Thnx guys an gals, MEthos

Just say you have
#banner as your banner div, you can use
background:url(pathtobanner.jpg);
same for columns. To make a basic 3 column layout modify some stuff here:

do you mean something like this? as in the same layout, but with images instead of blocks of colour.

p.s. i found your hidden page!

RE: CSS by stoshrocket on 09-05-2005 at 08:13 PM

yeh, but i also want the two side blocks on the outer edge of the browser with them larger (obviously) and i want a scroll inside the main box relli


RE: CSS by hmaster on 09-05-2005 at 08:25 PM

Did you look on the link i gave, view the css and change widths. For the main just add a height and put overflow:auto; which would scroll it ;)

If you want a full, easy-to-understand reference for CSS, check out http://www.w3schools.com - I use that as a quick reference for XHTML and CSS myself.
