Header HTML - changes

[itchyfeet]

Hi

OK...I have another problem...when I switch between pages on SMUGMUG, the way my Header appears changes (especially font size/style/hyperlinks). This is what I have put in the Header HTML section of the customise/co-brand page of the control panel.

What is odd is that I see what I expect to see, until I actually go into a particular gallery. Each gallery displays the header in the same, incorrect way, to the rest of my smugmug pages (e.g. the bio page, the categories and sub-category pages).

How my headershould look:
http://itchyfeet.smugmug.com

How my header looks - incorrectly - in galleries (not different size of fonts etc):
http://itchyfeet.smugmug.com/gallery/741322

Please help! I want to standardise my pages! Note, I have limited knowledge of CSS (and HTML)

Thanks
Elliot

I either don't see the difference or it's working fine for me. Can you describe exactly what you see as the difference between the above two pages?

Elliot,

They look the same to me, too. I am using Firefox.

Have you tried to clear your browser cache? Close and re-open your browser and see if that makes any difference.

Cheers.

my header is where it says

route diary timeout photos general photos news links

the header changes, depending on which page I am viewing it in when in Smugmug.

i want the header to be in WHITE ARIAL WITH NO UNDERLINE. But, I want each hyperlink to underline when the mouse hovers over the hyperlink.

Route, News and Links take you to galleries within SMUGMUG (although note that I have not got any pictures in the galleries). When I select these gallery pages (or go into any other galleries), the header now shows all the hyperlinks UNDERLINED. When the mouse hovers over the hyperlinks, nothing happens. BUT, I want the style to be consistent with the main page (i.e. no underline unless I move the mouse over the link).

I did NOT have this problem before the new SMUGMUG was introduced recently.

(note, if you click diary, that takes you to a page OUTSIDE smugmug, so the difference in style is my fault there!)

elliot, it looks fine (consistently) for me on safari, and on firefox (both on mac and win).

hope this helps :D

that is weird. I am using Internet Explorer 6 on Windows. Have tried it on several different computers (although all with IE!)...and all had a similar problem. Is this an IE issue then???

I just took a look and see what you are saying. On the main page, your links are not underlined until you mouse over them. When you go to, say, the News page, the links are underlined.

I have no idea if this will work, but you might try adding this to your stylesheet html section:

a:visited { color: #000000;}
a:hover { color: #5674b9; text-decoration: underline;}
a:hover:visited { color: #5674b9; }

Replace the #000000 and #5674b9 with whatever color you use.

I use this method on my page for general links so they do not appear underlined until you mouse over them. Might work for your header.

Should add that I'm using Firefox on a Mac. Also checked it on Safari and get the same results.

EDIT: It just dawned on me that you may already be using the above on your site. In that case, if you are, I have no idea what's going on :)

The quick and dirty solution is that since you have a class="link" associated with each <a> element you can simply put .link { text-decoration:none; } in your css. That should solve the issue cross browser.
