  Old  A Couple HTML questions

Hi I have a few questions about html and css coding

1. How do I make a backround like http://www.frontlogic.com/ and then put the "page" on top of the backround making a nice border?

2. How do I make a footer using div's (bottom positioning, size etc)

Thanks!

I wouldn't recommend making one large image and setting it as the background image. there should always be a portion of the image that can be a repeating image. by using the background properties of repeat-x or repeat-y you can set the repeating to be horizontal or vertical. Several links on tableless css layout designs:

Ok thanks for the help,

One more question though

For my webpage iam using a table structure instead of using div's, iam having a problem inserting by navigation links though.

I insert the code into the table but when I view it in the design mode nothing shows up.


Here is the button code:

HTML Code:
<style type="text/css">
ul#catlist {
  background: #DCDBDB;
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0 0 2em 0;
  padding: 0;
  width: 170px;
}
#catlist a {
  display: block;
  width: 170px;
  height: 1em;
  border:1px solid #DCDBDB;
}
#catlist a:hover {
  background: #d0d0d0;
  border:1px solid #B9B9B9;
}

</style>
The code for the list:
HTML Code:
<ul id="catlist">
<b><i><font face="Arial" size="2">
Home</font></i></b>
<li><a href="">link</a></li>
<li><a href="">Link</a></li>
</ul>

Instead of just viewing in design mode have you tried actually previewing your WIP in your browsers?

Why don't you also specify the font face and size in your css as well?
