damsel in distress over style sheet basics

:wave and welcome

what do you want your footer to say/do? my old footer used to just be a graphic, in the same way that the header is. you can do that, if you like.

re: buttons. i ripped off another site, and then made my own code - until i just had mike lane do my site all over again.

but it's really pretty easy, here's an example:



example footer code

<p align="center">
<a href="http://yoursmugmugsitenamehere"><img border="0" src=" http://yoursmugmugfilenamehere.jpg" width="796" height="52" border="0" hspace="0" vspace="0"></a></p>

example navbar code (goes in css section)

a.andynav {
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
font-size: 14px;
}

a.andynav:hover {
color: whilte;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 14px;
}

.andynavtd {
width: 100px;
height: 36px;
}


other useful stuff:

/* changes the color of the box on homepage */
.box {
background-color: black;
}

/* hides your name (including any 's) */
#userName {
display: none;
}
/* hides the word home */
#userHome {
display: none;
}
/* removed the 's */
.possess {
display: none;
}

/* removes the vertical dashed lines */

.right_border, .left_border {
border: 0px;
}



/* removes the slideshow button from all galleries */
.play_slideshow {display: none;}

/* changing the green colored text */
a.title, .title, .imgBorderOn {
color: tan;
}

/* removes "map this" from homepage */
.homepage #breadcrumb {
display:none;
}

/* removes the word "galleries" from home page */
#galleryTitle
{
display:none;
}


and here's the navbar stuff that goes in the header section:

</div>

<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td align="center" class="andynavtd"><a href="http://www.moonriverphotography.com" class="andynav">Home</a></td>

<td align="center" class="andynavtd"><a href="http://www.moonriverphotography.com/Now%20Showing" class="andynav">Galleries</a></td>

<td align="center" class="andynavtd"><a href="http://www.moonriverphotography.com/gallery/52248" class="andynav">Buy Prints</a></td>

<td align="center" class="andynavtd"><a href="http://www.moonriverphotography.com/gallery/830860" class="andynav">Portraits</a></td>

<td align="center" class="andynavtd"><a href="http://www.moonriverphotography.com/gallery/729350" class="andynav">Links</a></td>

<td align="center" class="andynavtd"><a href="http://www.moonriverphotography.com/gallery/729385" class="andynav">Guestbook</a></td>

<td align="center" class="andynavtd"><a href="http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=12592" target="_blank" class="andynav">Workshop</a></td>

<td align="center" class="andynavtd"><a href="http://www.moonriverphotography.com/gallery/729391" class="andynav">Contact</a></td>
</tr>

you should just replace filenames, with your filenames, my words with what you want, colors, etc etc

hth,

[Andy]

Thanks for the help. I'll try this out and see how it goes. This looks VERY helpful.

As for the footer, I guess I really just want to get rid of the stiff at the bottom and have nothing at all there.

you can't - not without messing up your site horribly, in terms of losing navigation stuff.

good luck!

This is working very well for me. Thanks so much. Stuck on something though....

Now on my home page I have in tan, the words "gallery categories". How do I get rid of that. Tried typing in

#gallery_categoriesTitle
{
display:none;
}

but that didn't help.

switch to "gallery view" on your homepage instead of category view and that code should work.
