Thank you very much. Us newbies can miss the most obvious things sometimes. Thank you for your patient response. I put in the <a ... and it all works fine. Cheers, Rick

Hi Team,

I cut and pasted the example in the HTML course for menu lists into a practice document but it only gives me a horizontal list without any of the formatting. What do I need to do to fix this? File attached. thanks, Rick index.html

I downloaded "TextWrangler" and it all works fine. Thank you so much for your time and effort in solving this problem. Now I am up and going. Cheers.

Hi Foxy Mod,

Thank you for your reply. Think a different text editor would be a good answer. Unfortunately Notepad-plus-plus does not appear to run on a Mac computer. Any suggestions for a Mac?

Cheers, Rick

Hi,

I am doing then w3schools HTML Tutorial. I am using Mac Textedit. The text shows OK in Safari but it won't show the color. Here is the line of code: <h1 style=“color:red”>Followed by a smaller heading</h1>

This shows as an H1 (very large text) but won't show the red color. Here are my Textedit settings:

New Document: Plain text

Open and Save: Display HTML files as HTML code instead of formatted text

Document type HTML 4.01 Strict

Styling (I've tried all 3 options to no avail)

Encoding Unicode (UTF-8)

There is no Document type option for HTML5.

What do I need to do to get this working? Entire index file attached

Thanks, Rick
