addressing color issues - 12/6/2007 21:14:28
Hello, I have noticed some strange affects happening to my home page, and have seen this several times already. I have Firefox and Opera to check my pages. I decided to ( for the heck of it ) adjust my setting to 600 by 800 resolution, when I went back to opera, my page was competely black, so I changed the resolution back to 1024 by 768 and well my picture on my desk top was gone, thats no biggie, but saw that in Firefox and Opera my background is black. My buttons are there but its all black.. I saw this last night as well and I did not even chang the resolution, really I am not sure if its my pc or opera or Firefox. I dont know why this is skipping the beat even so on the web, that should not be occuring, the on and off mode, page normal, page black on a revisit? any ideas?

well on the URL you provided you still have <style>body{background: black url("grey%20background.gif" ) fixed}-->
</style> in there. That should be in the <head> if you are going to be relying on it. But you have <body text="#FFFFFF" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" style="text-align: left" background="grey%20background.gif" vlink="#FFFFFF">
right above it. (Which #FFFFFF are the same color so you might determine what color you want for your background and use styles for the entire thing. Get rid of the spaces in your image name as well.

Hi Cory, well this is not my work, I dont do HTML at all, I only to to fix the glitches to straighten up what Frontpage promises to deliver under the deceptive measures in which poeple like myself get trapped. I make the page and FP does the HTML, which is a far cry from what needs to be listed in HTML, apparent.
The back ground I am using of course is a pattern of several colors, I could not defrechiate it as one, I would not know how to do that. I just found a background to use and as the page ask me in page properties for a backfround and that was my choice, of course then to be able to scroll down it. I will move that into the spot you say to do, as a copy and paste. Then up-date it and see what happens, when I put code in there it seems to re-adjust and do its own thing anway, I hope this works, thanks Cory

Cory, I keep trying to do this and I am getting the same results as I was trying to remove the blue lines under the last 2 fonts of Marilyn Monroe, the code is literally showing up on my website page when I up-date it. I was able to rid the blue lines under ( Creator of Jedidiahs Arts, but far some reason and I keep scrutinizing over this, the blue lines appear and I am doing the same thing, as far as code and placement. So I copied and pasted what it was you said to move in its perspective position, then up-date and the code literally shows up again. I removed it, and put it in head, that is what keeps popping up, weird ey? its driving me nuts.

Sorry Cory, for so many replies, I dont see any spaces between my names, anywhere, I do see spaces on the buttons and so forth, I dont know how to make it come together as it does the way I want it and see it in IE, its different in Firefox and Opera, I dont know how to correct that... but no I dont see spaces there at all????
Sherri, I am looking to see where this is at... not sure where you meant.

Look at your sourc code that I copied. You have a %20 in there which represents a space. If you look at your file names listed in FP you should see a space

Hi Cory, thank you for your responce, I do see the 20% on the code in FP but not on the file itself in the folders. I am not sure I can add the %20 to the folder but could take it out of FP, FP does this with almost everything you file when you save the pages, I dont know why, I just thought it was normal, I am starting to here its not. I will try to add or take a way the difference when I have sometime this weekend, I am off to work. So I will tryi and see what comes up. This % thing in the files is a real drag, I am experimenting with rebuilding new pages, I may just create a dot to clk on to a page without all that nonsence when I publish to see the outcome. No-one will know the dot is there, at least for the moment, he-he.

RE: addressing color issues - 12/7/2007 16:19:13
Hi Cory, hey... I do see in frontpage the %20 as being the space, now... I remove that...because it is not the name in the files but the %20 shows up in the code as I am desiging the page, now... I removed the 20% and what happens? the graphic I am using there disapears, yep disapears. So... I literally went back into my documents...where a back-up copy is, and made a new name for that file, without spaces. I then inserted it, as I did the 20% shows again, I cannot change that in frontpage, its is creating its own thing, when I insert the graphic it documents what it wants to. I do not know how to change that, and make Frontpage comly...what is the secret there?
Thank you
Sherri

the %20 is basically HTML way of showing a space. If you name something http://www.example.com/my page name.html you need to use <a href="my%20page%20name.html">Click here</a> to point to that page. This is why I suggested get rid of the spaces in your file names. I have not ever read of a good reason to have them. Use hyphens or underscores if you need to have something to separate the words.
I tried to go to http://www.jedidiahsarts.com/greybackground.gif but it said URL was not found. However http://www.jedidiahsarts.com/grey%20background.gif was found. This means that your file name is grey background.gif and not greybackground.gif

Hi Cory, thank you for your reply. See this is exactly what I am talking about... I see what you are saying here, and you are correct, now...when I go to change that is throws a fit and shows a black back-ground. Now I am using by choice and insert the file in which the back ground I have to use is the grey background.gif, now as I choose to insert it into FP...FP changes that file to what it is you were able to see, I am telling you this program has a mind of its own. I eliminated, I am only inserting the files and FP is adding the % and for whatever reason I dont know, and as I said, even changing those files it still does what it wants. I have no idea whay that grey back ground file does its own thing like this...none...I keep trying to correct this but as said FP does its own thing.
Sherri ?? its nuts!! he-he
