I would like to change the background to black in the menu and main parts of my website, but I can't seem to get the text to appear as white. Where do I define the text color in the css?

Thanks!

Thanks!

where do you change the body text colour? and what file will it be. i would like to change the black text to white. and the black text in the navigation bar too.

i had a look in the style.css file under eatock, as i use that layout, but couldnt find it.

cheers for any help in advance.

First thing you should do is switch from the Eatock template set to Sample...and/or...create your own template set. Then you can edit like crazy...

There is no easy option to adjust the text color...so you need to edit via the style.css. There are tons of threads here about customization. If you try and have problems...post up your experiments here and we'll try to help you out.

Vaska, cheers for making me look properly. I figured it out quite quickly. so this is what i put in:

body.section-1 { text-decoration: none; color: #fff; }
body.section-2 { text-decoration: none; color: #fff; }
body.section-3 { text-decoration: none; color: #fff; }

a:link { text-decoration: none; color: #f00; }
a:active { text-decoration: none; }
a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #fff; }
a:hover { text-decoration: none; color: #fff; }

a img { border: none; }

but is it possible to only change the colour of the non-link text in the navigation bar, for example the title of you website?

and if i wanted to put in a jpg or image in the navigation bar, do i put a link into the img { border: none; } section?

finally, thanks for putting together a program that makes it reasonably easy for less computer literate people like myself to use and make their own website.

"navigation bar"...you mean of your browser? no...not possible...if that's what you mean.

no...it's more complicated than that. you can add an image to your Exhibits > Settings > Pre-nav Text area...just input the html and save it...tweak it from there...

we've tried...and we'll keep trying. to be honest, we wanted to do just enough to get people rolling and then folks like yourself who are willing to learn a few things would take it further. it's great that you are trying and learning...just think where you might be in another few months of playing around.

cheers to you too from Indexhibit!

i mean the left hand side, where the buttons are to move you to the individual exhibits. is it possible to change the colour of the headings, for example, I have headings for 2006,2007 and 2008. can these be changed individually?

no...it's more complicated than that. you can add an image to your Exhibits > Settings > Pre-nav Text area...just input the html and save it...tweak it from there...

what do you mean by html?

yeh, its taken me a week and a half so far, but its a great platform to show whatever you want to show.

You can style the li.section-title to affect the section headings.

html is what you use to build websites with...that's what the 'img' tag is...html.
