Link Light Up

also the class isnt set in the

sorry let me finish what i meant to say in the last reply i had problems setting up my table so my sidebar pics and text are in a tag with a redefined

tag for the text so the class defined in the tag is for my pics and the

tag is for formatting my text so now what do i do from here?

HTML is processed in your posts so it appears as your post looks like now.

if you're using tables for instance:

<td>
TEXT
</td>

is how it would look. to apply the style you would add the class="STYLE" variable in the <td> tag, like so:

<td class="STYLE">
TEXT
</td>

[edit] umm can you like, replace the < with another letter because I can't view what you just wrote XP

read this:

(had to take a peek at the forum's source to figure out what u said :p)

anyway, your <span> tag sould be like <span class="PICTURESTYLE"> (not sure if span supports the class variable) and the <p> tag should be <p class="TEXTSTYLE">

I read the tutorial, but I'm having trouble visualizing your problem, can you link me to your site so I can see what's the problem there?

oh sorry didnt realize that ok here i go again
i have my entire sidebar in a span class tag with my span (span class="mystyle") then defined within that class i redefined the (p) tag to formatt my text so its like
(table)
(tr colspan="3")
(img src="mytopbar")
(/tr)
(tr)
(td width="whatever the width is")
//// now heres where my span starts /////
(span class="mycss")-this is my css style
(img src="whatever")-this is my header for my following links
(p)(a href="whatever")My Link Here(/a)
then so on until i have the rest of my sidebar complete

ok sorry bout all the confusion guys i figured it out it was righ there in front of me since the begining of this. i will post the final code in a minute sorry to put you guys through this

Yes, it was quite a headache... ;) just kiddin'

Ok now just imagine tags in there where they look like they should go. there sre parenthesis towards the bottom but it was taking to long to replace the carrots so i replaced them with spaces instead.

that was the leftmenu of my site as you can see all you had to do was place the class attribute in the (a) tag like normal i dont know why it didnt work the first two times i tried it but thats what works
