Getting backgrounds to work with new layout
      #454860 - 27/04/2007 19:15

So I've found -- much to my dismay -- that normal background codes no longer seem to work on the site. Does anyone know what I need to do to make them cooperate with the new layout?

My daughter didn't change anything, and her lookup is still there. I don't know why.

She's got two backgrounds competing for the same space, though, and all sorts of additional coding going on that could contribute to them showing.

Shop backgrounds aren't working for me, either, using HTML or CSS.

I am definitely not happy with the way they changed userlookups.

They've used tables more than ever now.

Currently the ones which can change the info stuff are:
.contentModule
.MedText
.contentModuleContent
.contentModuleHeader
.contentModuleHeaderAlt
.contentModuleContent medText
.contentModuleTable

I've got to redo all my images now... I'm not happy.
Anyway, this is my work in progress to bring my UL back to its former glory: Clickie (It's still got a LOT of work)

EDIT: okay, I've also tried hiding all these as well:
.nav_image
.footerNifty
.footerForm sf
.footer
.copyright

I still can't work out how to hide the bottom part.

I love the new changes~ Coding is so much easier!
If anyone wants a quick guide:

(See my lookup for reference)

This will change the page background (see dark brown area):
Code:
<style> body{background:url("URL")  }</style> 



This will change the table background (see tan area)
Code:
<style>#main {background:url("URL")  }</style>



This will change the info box backgrounds (see light cream areas)
Code:
<style> .medText{background:url("URL"} </style>



I know these work on guilds too but I havn't checked shops/galleries.
Maybe that will help a little. If it doesn't then do tell.

<style> body{background:url("URL") }</style> is essentially what my coding is. Ugh. They hate me.

[edit]
Yeah, I've tried that exact coding with various images stored on different hosts and it won't work at ALL.

This is what my background was before. It doesn't work now.

<style> body {background: fixed; background-color: #CCCCFF;}</style>

So what do we do then since the backgrounds aren't working? The layout I got from Soup Faerie still works, but I can't get my background to work..-.-

There's got to be a way to code it so it works.
