a:active not working in navigation

Submitted by mandogirl on Thu, 2012-01-26 09:02

Hello,
I'm new to this so it's probably a really stupid mistake I've made, but I'd be really grateful if nyone can help! I'm making a website for which I'm using a style sheet. At the top of the page there is a navigation bar which has a black background and is grey when hovered over but should also be grey when a link is active. As far as I can tell, it should be working, but it isn't. Any ideas?
Here's the CSS

/* Default CSS */
/* Generated by the CoffeeCup HTML Editor - <a href="http://www.coffeecup.com" rel="nofollow">www.coffeecup.com</a> */
 
body 
{
background-color:#000000;
background-image:url('Bryn Background.jpg');

How can I centre my navigation menu?

Submitted by Danhaskett on Fri, 2011-12-02 21:25

Hi there,

I hope its ok to ask for some help here with my wordpress website. I've asked
for advice on their forum but had no luck and thought this might be a good place
to ask.

So my website is

www.danhaskett.co.uk/blog

I would love to centre the navigation menu at the top, underneath the header, but
I can't work out what I need to change. When I remove the float: right; option then
all the menu buttons come to the center but they also run vertically down instead
of horizontally across.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks

Dan

Navigation float/position issues.. Help?

Submitted by deathraygun on Wed, 2011-10-05 16:41

Hey there, I'm having some trouble getting my navigation to stay within the header(100% width) when the page is made smaller. I want it to move dynamically with the page, and remain about 30px away from the right hand side. I tried to set a min-width so when the page gets smaller than lets say 1000px, it locks in place and doesn't drop float down.

Best Way to Make HTML Buttons

Submitted by andy.richin on Wed, 2011-04-27 15:17

I am decent at using CSS and HTML, but I am trying to find the best way to make nav buttons that will remain "clicked down" once you get to the linked page. I have been searching all over the web and haven't found the best, most straight forward response. I am trying to do this without using images. Do I need to use Java or can this be done using CSS? Thanks for any help!
