Hi Michael- Again thank you for the help during open lab, and hopefully you're feeling better??!!
Ok so I've created a "navigation div" and i think I've styled it so at least it seems to be functioning properly when I preview it and it doesn't float in any random place. THEN I put images with rollovers (as my buttons) in the navigation div and so far it seems like there are no problems. MY buttons are staying where I want them, and all the rollovers seem to function... so far YAY: ) (knock on wood I don't goof it up)
My next question is: I want to keep everything (meaning the buttons) EXACTLY how it is and just "swap out" the background picture for each new page,
for example, the fish image for the fish page, the reptile image for the reptile page and so on... You (and Justin) started explaining to me how to do this on monday night but I'm afraid I didn't understand exactly what you meant. Can you review what I would do???
Would I just delete the original image and replace with a new image, then save it as something different? And I think you guys were telling me to name a container different- is that correct? If so why? If I do just delete the original image, I have no idea where it is in the HTML, so I'm including an image of the HTML... maybe you can point out what part I should delete???
Ok well I think this is plenty of questions, thank yo u so much in advance for any help!!!
