Title: Background Issues-Change to an Image
Post by: BigRed on September 29, 2006, 05:30:37 PM
I cant seem to get the backgrond to change to an image. I tried searching and tried a few things with no luck. Also having a problem with the header and footer not totally loading.

Here is the background image. Stored in themes/classic/images/blue.jpg

Still new at this, thanks!

First thing I see when looking at you page source is that you have 2 <body> tags. I'd start with removing one.

Style.css change the body to
body {
        font-family : Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
        font-size: 12px;
        background:url(images/blue.gif) repeat-y;
        background-color : #000000;
        color : Black;
        margin: 0px;
}

Ok that worked, and I fixed a bunch of other stuff. A few more things. Now on the footer i have a gap that i cant seem to find and elminate, the text should be larger and white. Just that for now. I'll keep tring on my end too.

Thanks for the help ;D

Hi BigRed,

There's a one questions pre thread so I'd suggest starting a new one. But in the meantime, try a couple of web tools to see where your issues are in the code. I'd recommend for Firefox:

Aardvard - http://karmatics.com/aardvark/ (http://karmatics.com/aardvark/)
Web Developer - http://www.chrispederick.com/work/firefox/webdeveloper/ (http://www.chrispederick.com/work/firefox/webdeveloper/)

Check out this sticky for more tools - http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=31423.0 (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=31423.0)
