April 28, 200818 yr Hi its 6am, ive not yet been to bed, and im seriously running out of steam toward the end of this project, can anyone tell me why my textboxes are not appearing on the menu page? thanks Dan www.thefishplate.co.uk p.s works on firefox.. not on internet explorer.
April 28, 200818 yr Firstly, remove ' background="background.jpg" ' from your <body> tag. Add it to the body declaration in your <style> tag: body { text-align:left; background: url(background.jpg) top center no-repeat; } At the moment, in IE, it is repeating down the page. This will stop that. As for the text box background images, try changing the image file names so that they don't have any spaces in them. i.e text box1 menu.jpg would become textbox1menu.jpg. Also, in your css, remove the quotes from inside the following lines: background: url("text box1 menu.jpg")no-repeat; background:url("textbox2 menu.jpg")no-repeat; for #content and #content1 respectively. See if that sorts out the problem.
April 28, 200818 yr I would also take the space character " " out of your file names, as this may be causing some erratic behaviour. Most people use underscore (_) instead. For example text box.jpg becomes text_box.jpg
