hi thanks

i needed the span tag for a background colour script

i couldnt really get it going even though id named

the span ? its odd it doesnt seem to show up as being named

oh well i learnt a lot about layer effects today

according to dreamweaver span is part of a layer ??

more confused than ever now lol

thanks for the help ill have a good read of that

site

WOOOOHOO

i sussed it out

after reading that page

apparently span can change

allsorts of stuff on your page

as in text.

the first span tag i got was made in arachnophilia

the html editor and dreamweaver didnt recognise it

so i redid the tag until it showed up

anyway now i can click on a piece of text

and it will highlight itself in any colour

i specify in the code

weird im sure that will be useful

somehow :)

cheers

In the DW, you create <span> tags in CSS Styles found at the bottom right corner of your screen.

hi its not the same thing

well it is and it isnt

it does put a control in for the span

but not the tag itself

its hard to explain

here this is what ive found so far

place this after the body tag :)

<span id ="yournamehere" onDblClick="MM_changeProp('yournamehere','','innerText','wow thats awesome ','SPAN')">well
thats cool </span>

oh yeah double click on the text to see the effect

i dont think ive ever seen this before


cool

p.s. if you find this tag let me know

thanks
