    rounding corners of a tab

    in HTML/XHTML

    Posted

    Hi, A while back, I went through all the tutorials. I should have bookmarked the page I want, but thought I could just go back and find it, but I cannot find what I am looking for. I want to have tabs on my page for different areas of my site), and want them to look like an actual tab as on a manila folder. Can you please refer me to that page or tell me how to do it? I built my website about 15 years ago in tables, and am trying to learn this new stuff. I want my new site to look like my old site mainemadestuff.com . You can take a look if you want. I know it has to be done completely different, so I am trying to learn.

    tutorial on css confusion

    in CSS

    Posted

    While doing this tutorial: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_navbar.asp , I am a little confused. I am new at learning css, so please be gentle with the explination. I thought the reason for using a seperate css page was so not to have to use html in the original code of the page. In this instance, would it not mean that every page of the website would have to be written in the html part of the page in order to have the navbar be set up the same on each page? I will put the 'try it' code here.

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <head>
    <style>
    ul {
    list-style-type: none;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    overflow: hidden;
    background-color: #333;
    }
    li {
    float: left;
    }
    li a {
    display: block;
    color: white;
    text-align: center;
    padding: 14px 16px;
    text-decoration: none;
    }
    li a:hover:not(.active) {
    background-color: #111;
    }
    .active {
    background-color: #4CAF50;
    }
    </style>
    </head>
    <body>
    <ul>
    <li><a href="#home">Home</a></li>
    <li><a href="#news">News</a></li>
    <li><a href="#contact">Contact</a></li>
    <ul style="float:right;list-style-type:none;">
    <li><a class="active" href="#about">About</a></li>
    <li><a href="#login">Login</a></li>
    </ul>
    </ul>
    </body>
    </html>

    best editor ?

    What about Bootstrap? Has anyone tried that? Is that more like Dreamweaver or Notepad?

    I learned the old HTML, the original in notepad, but am now learning the new HTML5 and CSS3 and am sooooooooooo confused. My most recent version of Dreamweaver is 6, so you see, I need something newer. I know how to write the old stuff, but need something that will do the new for me. I have taken online classes, and know how to dissect, remove, add code to a page. My website has not changed much since 2002. I really want an editor to help me. Dreamweaver helped me back then, but it is so expensive! So, how does Bootstrap compare to that or is there another one out there to download free that is similar, like on tucows?

    Hi,I am a Great Grammy. Now, come on....I know you think I am too old to do this stuff, but I really enjoy it and have the time for it, as long as I get my afternoon nap. I graduated with a 3.97 average, so am not too brain dead ... yet... I went to college and graduated in 2000 with an Associates Degree in Computer Science. Since then, I have started my own business and made my website and a few others. I, also, am raising an eight year old granddaughter that keeps me entertained. I am here because I have not kept myself updated with the code, and want to revamp my website using CSS. I started the W3Schools tutorial beginning with HTML. I have some old copyrighted 2000 books on HTML 4, but some of the tags in there are depreciated. I have learned quite a bit of new stuff already, and can hardly wait to learn more. Happy Trails,Deb
