Help with text color

digerati · May 25, 2006, 05:29:12 AM

what part of the style.css is the text color of this image located? I want it to be white and I keep messing with the css and it just ends up changing the wrong things white.

I can't find a page that shows the text. Could you post a link to the page in your gallery that shows that text?

No I cant the site is not public yet.

I can do this though.

Here is the image and the text is black so you cant see anything.

Now here is the same gallery index with ctrl A pressed to highlight everything and you can see the black text revealed.

Edit .tableb color in your stylesheet.

Check out the Colorzilla extension if you use Firefox.

digerati · May 25, 2006, 06:02:51 AM

That only made the background white and not the text

Post your code for .tableb which gave that result.

digerati · May 25, 2006, 06:17:36 AM

Before ----

.tableb {
background: #333333 ;
padding-top: 3px;
padding-right: 10px;
padding-bottom: 3px;
padding-left: 10px;
}

After ----

.tableb {
background: #FFFFFF ;
padding-top: 3px;
padding-right: 10px;
padding-bottom: 3px;
padding-left: 10px;
}

You changed the background value, that dictates the background color.

To change font color, you need to add a line for color and specify the color you want to use.

I thank you for your time.

Like this:

.tableb {
background: #333333 ;
color: #FFFFFF
padding-top: 3px;
padding-right: 10px;
padding-bottom: 3px;
padding-left: 10px;
}

You need a semi-colon at the end of each line. Check out this css tutorial: http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp

text-decoration: underline;
color: #88954E;
}

.alblink a:hover {

text-decoration: underline;

Use the Web Developer Toolbar or the Web Accesibility Toolbar as suggested in http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=31423.0 to find out what css class controls which section of the screen.
