Hello All. Wonder if someone can help. In VSD, I used the insert HTML feature to add a back button using this code: <a href="#" onClick="history.go(-1)">Go Back</a>

The feature works, but it is the color I have an issue with. Right now it is purple and on mouseover, it turns green. What code would I add to make the color white, and less the mouseover? It appears that there is not a mouseover feature attached in VSD. Anyway, as I can still be considered a rookie , especially in html, this may be an easy one.

Thanks,
Marc

Give this a try Marc.
Add a HTML box
Header HTML

Body HTML


Adjust the color codes to your needs.

Thanks Eric:D I have made a little bit of progress, but the text still is purple and changes to white? Here is what I have added for the header:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
.back_button { color:#FFFFFF; font-weight:bold; }
.back_button:visted{ color:#FFFFFF; }
.back_button:hover { color:#FFFFFF; }
.back_button:active { color:#FFFFFF; }
-->
</style>

(#FFFFFF being white.) I must be doing something wrong:/

Forgot to add, that I deleted the old html box I had and did a copy and paste for the body also. The only change was the color.

Give this a try.

Hey Marc, In VSD just go to 'Settings/Standard Setting For New Pages' off the top menu and you can adjust the link colors. Just remember that this will change the link colors for ALL pages.

Eric... ..... It works! Thanks! GUNSMOKE, I saw that setting, but since I have a few more pages to go knowing that the colors will be different, I didn't want to take that route.

Guys, thanks again for the help.

The back button works perfectly. My next task, and I have tried a few things from online, and searched the forums here, but I need text with a link similar to the back button. I can not use the buttonize feature as there is not a transparent background color. I added this info to the html code box:

BODY: <a href="http://mywebsitename.com">HOME</a>

HEADER: <style type="text/css">
<!--
a.href { color:#FFFFFF; font-weight:bold; }
a.href :visted{ color:#FFFFFF; }
a.href :hover { color:#FFFFFF; }
a.href :active { color:#FFFFFF; }
-->
</style>

I would use it less the header info, but the text changes colors, and I would like to avoid the global option under 'Settings/Standard Setting'. Sorry, not trying to be difficult, just trying to catch up to you guys and gals on here .

Thanks,
Marc

<a class="link" href="http://mywebsitename.com">HOME</a>

<style type="text/css">
<!--
a.link { color:#FFFFFF; font-weight:bold; }
a.link :visted{ color:#FFFFFF; }
a.link :hover { color:#FFFFFF; }
a.link :active { color:#FFFFFF; }
-->
</style>

Thanks once again Eric.
