How do I use My own custom css in live journal? I tried to do it, but The page stays the same, and the css is deleted. Do I put it in the override box? If so, then What Am I doing wrong?

Here are my codes:


<style TYPE="text/css">
a:hover {text-decoration:strikethrough;text -transform:underline; background:#000000; border:dashed; border-top-width: 1px; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-width: 1px; border-right-width: 1px; height:0; cursor:s-resize;}
body, html, td, font, div, p {
font-family: century gothic;
font-size: 8pt;
line-height: 13px;
body, html, td, font, div, p { font-family: Century Gothic; font-size: 8pt; line-height: 9pt }
A:link { font-family: Century Gothic; text-decoration: none; cursor: crosshair }
A:visited { font-family: Century Gothic; text-decoration: none; cursor: s-resize }
A:active {text-decoration: line-through; cursor: crosshair; font-size:9pt }
a:hover {text-decoration: none; color: #999999;s-resize:help;font-weight:none; text-decoration: none; position:relative; top:2px;}
table {width:50%; border:0px solid #999999;}
table table {width: 100%; margin:0; border:1; border:2px solid #000000;}
table table table {width: 0%; border:1; }
table table table table {width: 100%; }

body {
background-image:url(revealed-destiny.net/ljlayout.jpg);
background-attachment:fixed;
SCROLLBAR-FACE-COLOR: #000000;
cursor:crosshair;
SCROLLBAR-FACE-COLOR: #000000;
SCROLLBAR-HIGHLIGHT-COLOR: #999999;
SCROLLBAR-SHADOW-COLOR: #000000;
SCROLLBAR-3DLIGHT-COLOR: #999999;
SCROLLBAR-ARROW-COLOR: #999999;
SCROLLBAR-TRACK-COLOR: #000000;
SCROLLBAR-DARKSHADOW-COLOR: #999999;}
-->
</style>

LJ is funny like that... you need to add some stuff in order for it to be recognized. Try adding...

GLOBAL_HEAD<=

before your css and

<=GLOBAL_HEAD

after it.

The half-page this is probably from this part of your css:
table {width:50%; border:0px solid #999999;}
I'd take that out, or adjust the width, or just play around with it.

You also have to put the entire URL in order for the image to appear. ;)

Ok, that worked, Now I was wondering if there is a way to make the table's background color semi transparent... BTW, I would have edited, but it was more then 5 mins
