pang Posted March 1, 2015 Share 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.

Mouseykins Posted March 1, 2015 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pang Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
