I personally have not had this pop-up. I can venture a guess as to why though,
it's because I have NoScript, an add-on for FireFox. It blocks third party
scripts from executing.
I have mine set to block ALL website scripts and when I visit a site that I want
to allow, I simply allow it and any other site I want.
I've always thought that url(image url) means that the url goes outside and then
something goes inside (but I had no idea what), you know? That's how I got the
code wrong
Do you know how to put this into the content?
body { color: #CC3366; background: #6633FF; }
I tried using ur codes but it seems to be only good for the image links
Oh no problem!
Yes, where it says "(image url)", you put the image's location
there.
As for your next question, I believe you've already solved that yourself.
Where it says "body", you just put ".inner". Is that how you
wanted it or did you want to put that as the entire background color?
Hi hoatim!
The background setup for minitokyo is different than other sites. It is divided
into multiple sections, top, topCenter, topLeft, main, leftMenu, rightMenu and
content.
For example....
#leftMenu {
background: url(image url) no-repeat top right;
}
#rightMenu {
background: url() repeat-x top;
}
#content {
background: url(image url) no-repeat top left;
}
For your background, I would suggest that you either use the #topCenter or the
#content area.
Here is another way to put the image as a background, but it goes for the
background of your content (your menus and page content as well as your
guestbook).
Sheqel, I am potentially interested in being a beta tester. I am a web designer
and coder, (not professional, yet, but experienced). I would like to test out
the new layout as well and provide feedback. I assume that using the test layout
as a beta tester will not affect my current layout, right? Or would I convert
right away?
I am just wondering if I would be testing on remote site or another location of
this site.
Could you provide more info please?
Quote by yothsothgothI use IE as
well. Humm... omg...
... O_O I AM a noob! Gomen!
That's sad...
BTW: I'm out of town for awhile, but I will be back soon and will try to fix
anything else if something comes up. This computer that I'm working on now has
IE only and shows up fine. I did put the moz-opacity codes for the MT toolbar at
the top and I wasn't sure if they worked. DarkSerge2000, do you see a fuzzy bar
at the top of the page in front of the toolbar (minitokyo, browse, forum, art...
etc)?
I will try to see what I can do to fix the problems. Please let me know if
something is amiss, I want to become better and you can't without trial and
error. This is all a learning experience for me. Thank you all for your
patience. I really appreciate your help.
LOL Ah don't worry, I've been there before! I've
practiced a lot with HTML and I have made my share of typos. Try writing a computer program and miss one character. It doesn't run and you can spend hours trying to figure that out. No
problem though, you'll get there!
Hmm, if by a "fuzzy bar", you mean this: then yes,
I do. Personally, I would make it darker (if you intended to have a fuzzy bar).
The links are a bit hard to see. Try a shade of green or black and if necessary,
make the links a bit lighter then. If that doesn't work, then try editing your
background and make the part that is behind the links darker.
Trial and error, yeah, that'll do it. Oh, and about IE, I dislike it so much
that I made my firewall block it from the Internet!
Ah, yes, the page loads much faster without the background music!
Why not have a music player to load the music when the page is done loading.
Take mine on my page for example. It doesn't slow down the loading process.
As for the background, I still see it.
Well, I like the background, because of the dark look!
There is one thing that's been bothering me about the page though, it tends to
take a while to load and my browser freezes for about 30 seconds, maybe because
of the background music. I don't know if I am the only one with this problem
though.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that I also love the colors of the page!

One more thing, the banners, why not add 'target="_blank" ' after the
links to the group page?
It opens the page in a new tab or new window, depending on which browser you are
using.
Just put that after the link to the page, but outside of the quote.
For example, <a href="http://jolly-roger-tavern.minitokyo.net/"
target="_blank">

This should help.

I hate you for having an avatar of L from Death Note.
Hmmm, yothsothgoth, you forgot to add the first " before the "_blank".
You have it like this...

....Now on another note, ShatteredSoul, you use Internet Explorer?
