Menu
Hello,
I am constructing a basic website and am stuck on the background color. It appears that the background color only shows up behind and to the sides of the main <div> of the page. It is white everywhere else.
The HTTP is as follows:
[code]
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN”
“http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”>
<html xmlns=”http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml”>
<head>
<title>Project 0 Home</title>
<meta http-equiv=”Content-Type” content=”text/html; charset=iso-8859-1″ />
<link href=”styles/reset.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” />
<link href=”styles/base.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” />
<link href=”styles/fonts.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” />
<link href=”styles/0style.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” />
</head>
<body>
<div id=”pageContainer”>
<div id=”pageTitle”>
<div id=”titleText”>
Project 0
</div>
</div>
<div id=”bannerImage”>
<!– image source: http://www.sxc.hu/photo/543788

<img src=”banner.jpg” alt=”banner” />
</div>
<div id=”menu”>
<ul>
<li><a href=””>Link 1</a></li>
<li><a href=””>Link 2</a></li>
<li><a href=””>Link 3</a></li>
<li><a href=””>Link 4</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div id=”pageContent”>
Testing
</div>
<div id=”footer”></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
And the CSS:
[code]
body
{
background-color: #0000ff;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#pageContainer{
border: 1px solid;
margin: 40px auto;
padding: 0px;
width: 800px;
font-size: 1em;
}
#pageTitle{
float:left;
margin:0px;
padding:auto;
border-bottom: 1px solid;
border-right: 1px solid;
width: 299px;
height: 130px;
}
#titleText
{
font-family: courier;
font-size: 4em;
text-align: center;
position:relative;
top:30px;
}
#bannerImage{
margin: 0 0 0 299px;
padding:0;
}
#menu
{
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
}
#menu ul
{
font-size: 1.0em;
height: 2.5em;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
}
#menu ul li
{
padding: .75em 0 .75em 0;
text-align: center;
float:left;
margin: 0;
width: 25%;
list-style: none;
}
#pageContent
{
margin:0;
padding:0;
border-top: 1px solid black;
}
#menu ul li:hover
{
background-color:#f00;
}
a:visited
{
text-decoration: none;
}
