Find the Fix!

Here's a game I thought of that I can think can prove to be a fun way for people of all skill sets to learn HTML and CSS.

One person will start off by posting a piece of code like this:

code

<div>Centered Text</div>

And then ask a question about how to "fix" the code to get it to do what he or she wants. So I could ask, "How do I center this text?"

Someone would then respond with another piece of code indicating what the fix is:

code

<div style="text-align: center;">Centered Text</div>

The first person who solves the problem correctly then gets the opportunity to post a piece of code and have someone else try to fix it.

The problem can be as simple or as difficult as you want and can involve any aspect of HTML or CSS. Make sense? If so I'll start things off with an easy one.

code

<a href="http://www.neoseeker.com">Neoseeker</a>

When I click on this link, I want the page to show in a new tab or window. How can I do that?

re: Find the Fix!

Is it:

code

<a href="http://www.neoseeker.com" target="_blank">Neoseeker</a>

Is it that?

re: Find the Fix!

code

<h2>This is a heading</h2>

How would I centre align that without using the div tags?

code

<div style="background-image: url(images/background.jpg'); width: 600px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">Content</div>

Well I know that you're missing the " ' " in between the brackets like so:

code

<div style="background-image: url('images/background.jpg'); width: 600px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">Content</div>

I'm not sure that's all though.

VрểгЁđĩŧ: Some confirmation please?

Let's be patient, now.

But yes, that was the error.

re: Find the Fix!

Most of this is from Vermillion's Navbar tutorial and a problem I encountered earlier.

code

<style type="text/css">

/*Navbar*/
#navbar {list-style:none;}

#navbar li {display:inline;
				 float:left;}

#navbar li a {text-decoration:none;
				   padding:9px;
				   spacing:2px;
				   background-color:#1e90ff;
				   color:#000000;
				   font-weight:bold;
				   font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;}

#navbar li a:hover{background-color:#191970;
							color:#ffffff;}

</style>

<ul id="navbar">
<li><a href="#one">One</a></li> 
<li><a href="#two">Two</a></li> 
<li><a href="#three">Three</a></li> 
<li><a href="#four">Four</a></li> 
<li><a href="#five">Five</a></li> 
<li><a href="#six">Six</a></li> 
<li><a href="#seven">Seven</a></li> 
<li><a href="#eight">Eight</a></li> 
<li><a href="#nine">Nine</a></li>
<li><a href="#ten">Ten</a></li>
</ul>
        <div align="center"><h4>Home</h4></div><br /><br />

Hello.

Copy that into a notepad document and save as a .htm file, why is my supposedly "centered" header so far over to the right?

re: Find the Fix!

Is it due to the two "br" tags at the end?

re: Find the Fix!

Nope, It's not that.

VрểгЁđĩŧ: It does have something to do with the "br" tag.
