tweaking guestlog appearance - 9/25/2001 16:43:00

re: http://www.arborsnews.com/guest/guestbook.htm

The guestlog above has four fields: Name,
Subject, Date & Comments.

I want to accomplish one task but don't know how.

I'd like the Name, Subject, Date and Comments titles to be in Arial Bold, 12 pt. What a visitor submits, I'd like to appear in Arial, 10 point.

I've spent hours trying to figure this out, reading about style sheets, etc. Though I've made a style sheet in a course I took several months ago, I no longer know how because I haven't had the need to create one until now.

Any help, suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Gail,

You can place some stylesheet code in the head of guestbook.htm (since guestlog.htm is an include file that's placed within it) ... the style sheet will affect the whole page.

Put the following between the <head></head> tags and see how it works for you (you might need to make a few adjustments depending on what other changes you've made to the page and personal preference):

* I should mention that the reason I made the h3 10pt bold is that the "Comments" field name/header (that's displayed in the results) is formatted by an h3 tag which is dynamically generated by the webbot. I figured it was better to match the other field names/headers which are dynamically generated with the <p> tag and set to bold.

I don't think there's any way to have the "submitted info" be a different size than the field names/headers since they're both formatted with the <p> tag (which is dynamically generated).

Let me know if that doesn't make sense.
