hi everyone. i worked really really hard on this one page and it looks perfect before it's on the web, but when it got loaded onto the web it looks absolutely distorted. the colors are weird and some text has turned black. because it's in my school's site, there's a banner added on top of the page. i'm guessing that the format of the school's page has distorted my page.

my web site is:
http://bethany.mca.org.tw/webclass/spring2003/Rainbow/rainbow.htm

you can see how it's distorted and looks bad. please help me! i could probably post the HTML for my own site before it went on the web but it's going to be too long :( thanks again.

Well yeah we can't really decide if it looks horrible or not because we don't know how it should look BEFORE you uploaded it to the web. Can you maybe take a screenshot of it and post the url here?

The page looks fine to me... but as i allready said: i dunno how it looked before you uploaded it

Love,
Mirna

well my page is ok i guess but the colors and links are strange. some lines hover orange and they aren't supposed to, only bold, while other text is black instead of the original color. here's a screenshot of my page:

thanks again.

If you don't want them to hover orange etc. then why do you have "a.orange:link" etc in your css document from mcamenu.css

you have SO many codes in your css that i think the best thing to do is re-organize it. Are all the links the same? i mean, do they all have to be bold when hover and be the same color? if so, then tell my why you have so many link, active and hover codes in your css file.

Also i opened your source into Notepad and searched for "orange" (because you have that in your css file) and it couldn't find orange in it. So you don't use that code as a class="orange" otherwise it must show up. The best way is to re-organize your codes and test all the colorcodes to see if you need that one or not.

all right, i thought so. my original code did NOT have orange or anything in it, that's why it looks fine before uploaded on the web. it's because of my school's web site's formatting that messed mine up i guess. but i'll have to talk to the website administrator about it because i don't think he wants to change it :S thanks again =)

Then i'm sure that the website from your school is doing things to your website then. Because otherwise i wouldn't know what should cause the problem

Good luck with it!

Love,
