wp@tobiasfeltus.comHi there,
I am rather slow and new at any dealings with PHP, and my CSS is rudimentary and based within table-built html sites. So thinks have taken me a long time to get to the point I have reached.
What I am doing is building a simple site powered by WordPress so that it can be maintained by the user. The Header is built with DIV tags in a similar way to a table header:
<div> (banner image)
<div><div><div><div> (links to wp categories)The site is graphically constructed, using gifs. The only part that I have failed to figure out (I think) is how to make the link buttons to the categories work, and contain the image.
I have tried using <img src> locally, as well as with http:// addresses, to no avail.
I have tried defining the image as a background in the CSS for the header, and then using "transparent" text as the link in the DIV, but I have not managed to control the text of the link by defining a proprietary class.
My current code that is not working (has the image, and visible text on top, working links) is as follows:
CSS:
[CSS code moderated - please follow the forum guidelines for posting and marking code]
header.php
<div id="Diary_">
<a class="transparent" href="index.php?cat=1"> DIARY </a>
</div>(I had to remove the chevrons to make the code visible, rather than appearing as a link) [for how to post code in the forum, see http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#Posting_Code ]
The site is currently running off a localhost, but if it would help, I could put it onto its proper server to finish testing.
Thanks a million,
Tobias
