pang Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 I am totally new to the html thing, although I have some experience with other kind of coding. The thing is I couldn't do some kind of very basic code, and it is driving me crazy. (I do not want to just copy people template, I want to work everything from scratch.) The problem is background color So I try <body bgcolor="#FF0000"> and the color won't come. I tried #FF0000 "FF0000" FF0000 "red" and nothing work! When I click the view page, no color come. And when I click save, the code just disappear. Same thing happen with <table bgcolor="#FF0000"> Table align I tried to get my table to the middle of the page The code is <table align="center"> Also not work and disappearing. Although I can do the <p align="center"> Please tell me what I am doing wrong. All the guide I read say this is the correct way, but it just won't work. Quote
Mouseykins Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 Neopets can be a bit testy when it comes to code. FIrst off for your color issue you probably need to type background out so that it looks like this: <body background-color="name"> and if that one doesn't work, try this one: <body style="background-color:lightgrey"> I mostly use CSS to style things and position, rather then HTML for everything. It may be beneficial to you to take a look at W3schools. That might help solve your problem. Also there's not really much we can do without the complete UL code posted. When/if you post your code use the <> button in the text editor when making your post and paste the code that way. Quote
pang Posted March 2, 2015 Author Posted March 2, 2015 Thank you. I will try that. To tell the truth, I don't really want to go into CSS now, since my HTML knowledge is not that solid. Guess I will look into it before doing anything else. Edit : Nope. Not work. I will readup the CSS. Quote
