Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong with this?
<style type="text/css">
A:link
{text-decoration: none; color:#ffffff;}
A:visited
{text-decoration: line-through; color:#ffffff;}
A:active
{text-decoration: none; color:#000000;}
A:hover
{text-decoration: underline overline; color:#000000;}
cursor: url('http://www.mbif.net/cursors/purpleglitter.ani');}
scrollbar-face-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #00000;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #00000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #9933FF;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #9900FF;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-track-color: #00000;
</style>
All the validator sites are saying that I am doing almost everything wrong...:(
The link attributes look alright, but you have forgotten a wee bit.
body {scrollbar-face-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #00000;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #00000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #9933FF;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #9900FF;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-track-color: #00000;}
The bold is what you've forgotten to add.
cursor: url('http://www.mbif.net/cursors/purpleglitter.ani');}
I'm just guessing on this, but I believe that is also supposed to be in the body part up there (between the curly brakets) and that curly braket you have ending that tag shouldn't be there. So it would look like...
body {scrollbar-face-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #00000;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #00000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #9933FF;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #9900FF;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-track-color: #00000;
cursor: url('http://www.mbif.net/cursors/purpleglitter.ani');}
If I'm wrong on the cursor; someone please correct me.

So once I upload that to my server what am I supposed to put on my pages?
I tried this
<LINK href="mystylesheet.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
and that is what my style sheet was named and it still isn't working?
Where did you put the tag?
And is the stylesheet and the page both in the same directory?
And (last question) if you made the style sheet in notepad or a similar program it may rename it to 'mystlesheet.css.txt'; so make sure it actually just says .css without anything after it.

I put the tag in the head part of the page.
And can you define directory? I think it is.
And I did make sure it has the right name. I put it in quotes.
And thanks again for helping!
Hm. Can you post the code for your page from <html> or <head> to <body>?
Directory = folder. Like folders on your computer. With some hosts you can make folders on to put different things in (ie. images, content, et cetera).
Sorry for asking so many questions ^.^;
Edit|| Sorry I didn't catch this sooner; take out the '<style type=...>' and '</style>' on your stylesheet. Since it's external this could be interfering with it.

Yeah I can make different folders on that. It has folders all, pages, images and stuff like other and media. Should I make a new one and put all the pages and the style sheet together?
<HTML><HEAD>
<LINK href="mystylesheet.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
^ That's the part of my site that has the link to the style sheet.
And I took that stuff out so I will upload it agian and see if it works! ^^
Also I am going to softball practice so if i don't respond for a while that's why.
Nope. I was just asking becuase if it was in a different directory the way you link it would have to be different.
Lemme know if it works ^.^ Have fun at softball practice.

Thanks. ^^
Anyway it still isn't working. I tried to put the pages and the css sheet into the same folder but it did something weird to my page so I deleted the folder.
Also would having frames make a difference? I wouldn't think so but?
I think with frames you may need to include the stylesheet into all the pages you want it to appear on. But I'm really unfamiliar with frames, so I may be wrong.

Yeah that's what I was thinking. I put the codes on all the pages but nothing happened.
