HTML/CSS question
    #7550844 - 10/23/07 01:15 PM (16 years, 6 months ago)

So, I've recently started learning a little bit of HTML/CSS. I'm trying to make a pretty cool site to host grow logs, trip reports, streaming consciousness journal type things, maybe some of my music.

Only problem so far is that I can't get the background the way I would like it.
At first I tried using a picture on my hard drive.. but it would never show up in the preview of the site or anything.
Next I just tried making the background a solid color.. but that wouldn't show up in the preview either.

I'm a little stumped..
Help, anyone?

the code I used was CSS
something similar along the lines of this...

Quote:

<html><head><title>Home</title>

<style type="text/css">
garden {
font-family: Herculanum;
background-color: 000;
}
</style>
<style>
#navcontainer
{
font-family: Courier New",Courier,monospace;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 100%;
border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
}
#navlist
{
width: 60%;
text-align: center;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0;
text-indent: 0;
list-style-type: none;
}
#navlist li
{
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
text-indent: 0;
display: inline;
}
#navlist li a
{
letter-spacing: -1px;
text-decoration: none;
color: #000;
font-size: 1em;
padding: 0 2px;
border-top: .5em solid #eee;
}
#navlist li a:hover,#navlist a#current
{
color: #006600;
border-top: none;
font-size: 1.5em;
}
#navlist a#current { color: #CCFF00; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="navcontainer">
<ul id="navlist">
<li id="active"><a href="#" id="current">Grow
Logs</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Streaming Consciousness</a></li&gt;
<li><a href="#">Musings</a><;/li>
<li><a href="#">Space Travels</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Learning</a>&lt;/li>
</ul>
</div>
</body></html>

Try this,
Code:

body{
background-image: url(folder/image.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat;
}


Or this,
Code:

body{
background-color: #000000;
}
