Lesson 15: Changing the color of the Text
Return to Lesson 14
Continue on with Lesson 16
<![CDATA[
There are basically three types of text that you can
change the color of: the regular text, the unvisited
links and the visited links.
These statements are also added to the <BODY> tag.
To change the text:
<BODY TEXT=#xxxxxx>
To change the unvisited link:
<BODY LINK=#xxxxxx>
To change the visited link:
<BODY VLINK=#xxxxxx>
So the whole body tag could look like this:
<BODY BGCOLOR=#000000 TEXT=#FF0000 LINK=#0000FF VLINK=#00FF00>
This would put a black background, red text, blue unvisited links
and green visited links.
or
<BODY BACKGROUND="dogpic.jpg" TEXT=#FF0000 LINK=#0000FF VLINK=#00FF00>
This would make the same color changes as the first
example, except instead of a black background there
would be an image background.
