Solved: Css question involving 2 text/css

OneLuv · 03-May-2007, 08:16 PM #1

Hi, Im already using an external .js for my side menu. the script tag has in it text/css. I was trying to learn how to use exteral css to be able to change the color, fonts etc. My goal is to use external css to be able to streamline and change the pages of my website all at once. (Not sure if its possible the way my pages are set up. Triple Border - tables)

How can I create this external css to change my fonts, without interferring with the external .js file that has text/css in the script tag?

More than likey your internal css on the js file is a different style, so you can define text etc for the rest of the page so long as your elements dont mix.

Example, if your js file has an element named

Code:

.whiteText {
	font-family: verdana,helvetica;
	color: #ffffff;
	font-weight: bold;
	font-size: 12pt;
}

and your page CSS also has an element named whiteText they would collide and more than likey the page's css would take charge, rendering the .js css invalid

Out of curosity, what is the js internal css elements? Can you post them here?

Sure if I knew what internal css elements were. (Too new to discuss). I can post the part of the .js that I was to put in the head section of my pages. Its below:

<style type="text/css">

</style>

<SCRIPT SRC="ssm.js" language="JavaScript1.2">

//Dynamic-FX slide in menu v6.5 (By maXimus, http://maximus.ravecore.com/)
//Updated July 8th, 03' for doctype bug
//For full source, and 100's more DHTML scripts, visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com

</SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT SRC="ssmItems.js" language="JavaScript1.2"></SCRIPT>

The purple underlined stuff is what I was questioning. I was following this css tutorial(If you know a good one, please share), I wanted to make it external for the reason I stated in the original post. I got confused doing the tutorial I think because I was trying to make it fit what I wanted it to do, instead of making all the fonts on the pages uniform. In specific the <h1>, I wanted to specific something different for a few pages but they all carry the <h1> tag. Let me ask this. Will it be possible to control my entire site using css? And if so, will I have to ditch the triple border tables ?(I will if I learn how do to a gradient like back ground) The work in progress is www.oneluvsdesire.com (it should be visible)

Thanks in advance.

These are the internal css elements inthe js file;

Code:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
A.ssmItems:link {color:black;text-decoration:none;}
A.ssmItems:hover {color:black;text-decoration:none;}
A.ssmItems:active {color:black;text-decoration:none;}
A.ssmItems:visited {color:black;text-decoration:none;}
//-->
</style>

and on the js file

Code:

menuBGColor="Purple";
menuIsStatic="yes"; //this sets whether menu should stay static on the screen
menuWidth=150; // Must be a multiple of 10! no quotes!!
menuCols=2;
hdrFontFamily="Comic Sans MS";
hdrFontSize="2";
hdrFontColor="#D4C0F0";
hdrBGColor="#5108A4";
hdrAlign="left";
hdrVAlign="center";
hdrHeight="15";
linkFontFamily="Comic Sans MS";
linkFontSize="2";
linkBGColor="white";
linkOverBGColor="#B187EF";
linkTarget="_top";
linkAlign="Left";
barBGColor="#5108A4";
barFontFamily="Comic Sans MS";
barFontSize="2";
barFontColor="#D4C0F0";
barVAlign="center";
barWidth=20; // no quotes!!
barText="OneLuvs Place"; // <IMG> tag supported. Put exact html for an image to show.

Your elements are pretty unique, you wont have any problems with the css sheets colliding.

You can create a new css document that the rest of the pages can use no problem.

Link to it on every webpage by adding into the <head> area

Code:

 
<HEAD>
    <LINK href="css/site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
  </HEAD>

the link to the css sheet is relative in every case so be sure to mind that onthe pages if they are in their own folders in the site.
