Ewww need noob help :[

[--ss--]

Well i decided to have another go on trying to code a website , on http://www.freewebs.com/habbo-ss/
I want a marquee to be on top of this image, i tried by putting the image in the background of the table , when i did that it worked but the positioning of all the other images got mucked up :(http://www.freewebs.com/habbo-ss/images/index_08.gif

Help :(

[:Edzy]

hmm, you need to retain the size or otherwise it will despand to the initial size

What do you mean?

I tried again resizing the background of the div but now grey liens appear and the box aint the correct size :'(

Heres the code of the certain table:

<td colspan="2" background=http://www.freewebs.com/habbo-ss/images/index_08.gif width="298" height="17" alt="">
<marquee>Site will be opening soon blah blah blah and oh bye.</marquee></td>

[Drompo]

In head section


<style type="text/css">
/marquee {
background:url(http://www.freewebs.com/habbo-ss/images/index_08.gif);
width:298px;
height:17px;
border: 0px none;
}
</style>
In Body Section

<td colspan="2" class="marquee">
<marquee>Site will be opening soon blah blah blah and oh bye.</marquee></td> That should work

Why do you think people code it them selfs if programs can do it for them..

Because the programs are crap at doing the coding :p

Make the text size Smaller?? it is to big so it is pushing everything out of its way

[Tomm]

Its only XHTML and CSS... there is plenty of tutorials.
