hello well you can do it simply by using css ( cascading style sheets) in dreamweaver and it really is quite simple

so then how, i mean, altho i cant say i know a whole lot bout css i know it a bit and understand the concept albeit not at full capacity, can u explain or throw me a link on how to do this

see this first

then get the css attached in this message

i dont mean to be all slow and al lol but what do i do with this. i tried putting it on the body tags and nada , tried to apply it to the form butt. and nada, um between the clsoing head and opening body and nada,

now let me down easy, what did i do wrong

open the page you have where you want to put the css and then do exactly as i have putted the css the only thing you have to do is to put the css file and the page you want the css applied with the import method as show in the page i showed you

ohhh i didnt see the “see this first” text up top. lol but im aware of the link through to the css file umm **** thats kool man um thanks llemme add it and lemme see if i get it right
