*********************************************************** Internet Explorer versions up to version 7 does not interpret CSS properly when the xml element is the first element in an HTML file. If the xml element is the first element in an HTML file Internet Explorer reverts to what is called "quirks" mode. This means it reads the code in the HTML file (and any CSS file linked to it) as if it were something like HTML 4 instead of XHTML with CSS. The version of the template above is correct and valid but I suggest you use the version below instead. This file is named template02.html on the disc. It will not cause any difficulties with any version of IE, although it might generate an error with some validators. (If there is a validation error, it will probably say something about an xml declaration. You can ignore it.) **************************************************************Put your text in paragraphs like this one.
************************************************************** Write cascading style sheet template ------------------------------------------ Inside the TEMPLATES folder write a text document named template.css and enter the code that is found between but not including the long line of asterisks: The lines of text that start with /* and end with */ are CSS comments. They can be omitted if you wish to save typing. However they will help you when you try to understand what is in the template.css. I recommend you keep them. *********************************************************** /* Regular HTML Elements */ /* Fonts - change 'sans-serif' to your preferred font */ address, blockquote, body, caption, center, dd, dir, div, dl, dt, form, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, menu, ol, p, td, th, ul {font-size: 1em; font-family: sans-serif} /* default styles */ a {cursor: auto} a:link {color: blue; background: transparent; text-decoration: none} a:visited {color: red; background: transparent; text-decoration: none} a:hover {text-decoration: underline} a:active {color: green; background: transparent; text-decoration: none} address {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; font: italic 1em/1 sans-serif} big {font-size: 1em} blockquote {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; line-height: 1} body {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; font: 1em/1 sans-serif; background: white; cursor: default} button {cursor: auto} caption {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; line-height: 1} code {font-size: 1em; font-family: monospace} div {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; line-height: 1} dd {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; line-height: 1} dl {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%} dt {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; line-height: 1} h1 {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; font: 1.8em/1.6 serif} h2 {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; font: 1.4em/1.2 serif} h3 {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; font: 1.2em/1 serif} h4 {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; font: 0.9em/1 serif} h5 {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; font: 0.8em/1 serif} h6 {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; font: 0.6em/0.8 serif} hr {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%} html {margin: 0; background: white} input {cursor: auto} kbd {font: 1em monospace} li {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; line-height: 1} ol {margin: 0em 0% 0em 5%; list-style: decimal} ul ul ol ol, ul ol ul ol, ol ul ol ol, ol ol ul ol, ol ul ol, ol ol {list-style: lower-alpha} ol ul ol ol, ol ol ul ol, ul ol ol ol, ol ol ol {list-style: lower-roman} ol ol ol ol {list-style: decimal} p {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; line-height: 1} pre {margin: 0em 0% 0em 0%; font: 1em/1 monospace} samp {font: 1em monospace} small {font-size: 1em} sub {font-size: 0.7em} sup {font-size: 0.7em} td {line-height: 1} textarea {cursor: text} th {font: bold 1em/1 sans-serif} tt {font: 1em monospace} ul {margin: 0em 0% 0em 5%; list-style: disc} ul ul, ol ol ul ul, ol ul ol ul, ul ol ol ul, ol ul ul, ul ol ul {list-style: circle} ol ul ul ul, ul ol ul ul, ul ul ol ul, ul ul ul {list-style: square} ul ul ul ul {list-style: disc} /* Classes */ /* IDs */ ***********************************************************
