What would accessing everyone's operating system tell me what element that is?

Before I can even color that part of the element first I have to find out what that element is.

Hi.. I did as you asked and youre right. After entering " size="5" " the dropdown list becomes visible. But the problem is when I do that the top and left side grey borders that were originally visible no longer is visible. So I dont know what to tweak exactly. This is bizarre. Take a look at my screen shot to see what I mean. What do you suggest?

Hi guys.. I use firefox and win 10. I'm trying to find out what a google element is in inspector. The element is a dropdown list. But everytime I hover away from it to inspect it in inspector, the element disappears and as such, inspector cant tell me what it is. Heres the link to that google page: https://www.google.com/search?q=cm+to+inches&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b-ab Heres a screenshot of the element I'm trying to find in inspector:

The dropdown list disappears when you hover your mouse from it to try to find out what it is in inspector. You cant get more clearer than this. As I said a bunch of times, theres no way of inspecting the dropdown element cuz AS SOON AS YOU MOVE YOUR MOUSE AWAY FROM IT TO THE INSPECTOR TOOL TO ATTEMPT TO FIND OUT WHAT IT IS IT D-I-S-A-P-P-E-A-R-S. Theres no dom tool in inspector. Everyone who knows css knows there isnt one. Think I'll start a new thread. You dont know css at all.

No, just the drop down list disappears when I hover from it as I check what it is in inspector. This occurs with some elements that disappear when you check what they are in inspector. As soon as you select the element and hover from it to inspector to inspect it, it disppaers. How can I find this element or freeze the element from disappearing?

I got firfeox and windows. There are elements that when I select to find what they are in inspector will disappear Is there a way to freeze certain elements that have a knack of disappearing when you hover away from them?

I said the element DISAPPEARS: "the element disappears and its info also." This is what I said in the beginning and I cant be more clear than this is, as this is clear as day. Youre having a very hard time understanding. AGAIN I CANNOT select the element as you would want me to because it DISAPPEARS as soon as I HOVER AWAY from it.

As I said the element disappears as soon as I move my mouse from it. So inspector fails to pick up what code it is as a result.

Hi guys.. I use firefox and win 10. I cant color the border of the drop down in google's metric conversion page. Everytime I hover away from the border to see what the element is in inspector, the element disappears and its info also. It happens with some elements. Wish there were a way to freeze these types of elements. Anyway heres the link to that google page: https://www.google.com/search?q=cm+to+inches&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b-ab Is there a way to freeze certain elements that have a knack of disappearing when you hover away from them?

Hi guys. I got a CSS that darkens google. The problem is that the google logo at the bottom of the page just above the page numbers isn't visible and I cant make it show. Look at the attached image... circled in red you will see the logo isnt visible. When I used inspect element on google, I found the code responsible for making the logo appear. The code is posted below. What can I do to the code to make the logo appear? |.star |div, |.star |span, |a#logo, |*.csb {background: none !important;}

Hi Ingolme.. I fixed the problem, thank god! But now I got an issue I need your help on. The link to my thread with my issue is here: http://w3schools.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=52306 Please help me. Thanks.!!

When I search, for example, "uii" in google, I get a box to the right side with links in blue which is what I like. But when I hover my mouse over it, the link changes to white. Look at the attached pic showing this circled in red. Where in the code can I change the link color when I hover my mouse over it?I also pasted a link to my updated CSS code below. Do take a look and let me know which element is the culprit of this. Thanks. http://www.filedropper.com/fixedgooglecss

Ok so what do you suggest I use as code to remedy this problem?

Hi, Ingoime.. The element in question and code I used is: *.f, *.irg-title > a, *.nrg-title, *.nrg-title > |a, *#brs > *.med, *.normal-header div.rg-header {margin-right: -44px !important;} As you see, I use 'margin-right: -44px'. It works. But it fails when I use my other CSS style that entails a font of arial, size of 17px and bold for all sites. The element for this is: ' * '. You said it looks like I'm using relative or absolute positioning. I dont know much about CSS. But what do you suggest I do?

Hi guys. I'm using Opera version 12.16. I got a problem with how my CSS looks in Google. The CSS is perfect except the second link below the main link is superimposed on the description. See the pic to see what I mean. I also attacthed a pic to show how Google is supposed to look. (btw, I used "uii" as my search for this example). This error happens when I use another CSS for all sites with font set to arial, 17px and bold. I need both this CSS and the CSS for Google, so I cant choose one over the other. I also attached my CSS code for Google. How can Iget this link to obey and stay put? Please take a look and please help me with this issue, Thanks. CSS for Google.txt

I'm using Opera version 12.16. I think I got it figured out now. But thanks for the help. If I need anything, I'll let you know. Again, thanks for the help man.

Can you please show me how to do this? So far when I bring up Inspect Element, I see on the right pane the CSS codes. I can change some of the elements. But some of these elements I cant change. I don't know whay. Can you please show me how to do thia? Thank you.

Wow! I swear to god that I had attached it. Attached is the file. As to dev tools, I think the element may be, '#masterhead search-items'. But I'm not sure. Anyway, maybe its best to just insert a brand new code to into my code to make these changes. If you know what codes can do this, I'd appreciate it. Thanks. contrastwb 11-28-14.txt

Hi, justsomeguy. Please looki at the attached code. I appreciate your help.

Hey guys!! Please look at the attached pic. In the top right corner, you'll see circled in red the button in youtube called, 'Sign In'. The button is blue, but the inner partof the button is in dark grey. I want to change this inner part to blue also to make the button a solid blue. When I used Inspect Element, I isolated the code that changes the color of this inner part of the button. The code is below: |*.guide-item.guide-item-selected |span, |*.yt-uix-button-subscribe-branded |*.yt-uix-button-content |span, |*.yt-uix-button-subscribed-branded |*.yt-uix-button-content |span, |*.yt-uix-button |span {color: #FFFFFF !important;background-color: transparent !important;} But I tried to change the color by adding, "background-color: transparent !important;". But that doesn't work. I don't know exactly if this is the right code to use or not. Let me know what I should do.. Thanks!!

Hey you gurus!! I got a peoblem I need help with on youtube. Please see attached pic. 1) In the red circle numbered 1, when I highlight a work in the drop down, it highlights the line but not the back of the words. How do I highlight the back of the words? 2) In the red circle numbered 2, what code changes the pink color of the words to another color? 3) In the red circle numbered 3, what code changes the color of the background of the drop down? Looking forward to hearing from you gurus!!!

Exactly! Very perceptive. Hope you can still help me, sweetheart. So far, I cleaned some of the pathces up. But one is giving me an issue. When I inspect the elements, theres this white patch in the online editor on this site. The code is below. I tried to replace the url with: "background: none !important;" but that doesn't work. .cke_top {background: url("http://w3schools.invisionzone.com/public/style_images/master/editor/toolbar_bg.png") repeat-x #E4EBF2 !important;} I also attached a pic to show you. What do you suggest to remove this white patch? Pic is attached. Please see it and let me know. Thanks, man!

Hi, dsonesuk. I tried what you suggested, which is adding"background-color #example color !important;" But even though it does a good job of allowing images to be seen,.a few elements still seep through with their whiteness. For example, when I tested that code with the site below, I get some white patches: http://freedownloads.pw/ Do you think it's best at this point to just add all possible elements and then add 'background-color' code to these elements? If so, can you please reply back with all the elements I can add to that code? Thanks. (Just to let you know, I'm using the site I posted above as an example. Please keep this in mind).

Hi, dsonesuk.. I'm a bit of a newbie, I only know basic CSS. Can you please explain what you mean by, 'shorthand background'? Do you mean that I should only use 'background-color' and remove 'background' from the code? If thats what you mean, then I already tried that and it works but I still get some white background. If you can, please add a code for me to use. As I said, I'm a newbie and know basic CSS. I'd appreciate it greatly. Thanks!
