I wanted to change the title link color in the facebook likebox. I've tried doing this with regular css but to no avail as the content and styles are being loaded from external sources into an iframe it seems.
These are the selectors in question:
.fan_box .connect_action .name { line-height: 15px; font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold; }
a { cursor: pointer; color: #3B5998; }
So either I need to change the color in .name or a to yellow. I tried the following and it did not work:
.fan_box .connect_action .name { line-height: 15px; font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold; color:#F90 !important; }
a { cursor: pointer; color: #F90 !important; }
I'm afraid you cannot control the presentation of the contents of an iframe from the parent document. It's a completely different HTML document, so your CSS files will have no effect on it.

I've searched but couldn't find anything relating to this problem I'm having.
I have been trying to work this out for ages now but can't seem to do it. I have a div which has text and an image in it. I want all text and background within the div to change color when I hover anywhere within the div. I have made it so that the text at the bottom changes, along with the background color, but can't seem to get the top text (h4) to change color.
It changes color when I hover directly over the h4 element but not when I hover anywhere within the div.
The link below is a rough example of what I want to achieve. There is seperate styling on the CSS of the h4 tag so can't make it a p like the rest. That would be the easiest way to do this but unfortunately they must stay different.
This is my CSS style
.container {
text-align: center;
}
.container h4 {
text-align: center;
color: black;
}
#project1 {
text-align: center;
color: white;
background-color: white;
background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.9);
color: black;
}
#project1:hover {
background-color: blue;
color: white;
}
#project1 h4:hover {
color: white;
}
#project1 h4 {
text-transform: uppercase;
}
a {
text-decoration: none;
}
Is there any way to do this using CSS and not jquery/javascript? I'm new to Web Development so only know some HTML/CSS at present.
Thanks.

JSFIDDLE LINK
Change your CSS style from
#project1 h4:hover {
color: white;
}
To
#project1:hover h4 {
color: white;
}
JSFIDDLE DEMO
You can use
#project1 h4 {
color: inherit;
}
to make it inherit #project1's color.
Demo
You can nest h4 tag in p tag.
no need for #project1 h4:hover in CSS.

im trying to change the colour of #commentslink to white. All my other font styling (font- family, size) is working, just the colour won't change
My HTML is this;
<div id="commentslink">
<div class="circle">
<p>10</p>
</div>
</div>
and my CSS is this
a:link, a:visited {
color: #0eb0d3;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
color: #0eb0d3;
opacity: 0.4;
text-decoration: none;
}
#commentslink {
float: right;
font-color: #ffffff;
font-size: 19px;
font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;
}
.circle {
float: right;
background-color: #f89b2d;
width: 32px;
height: 32px;
border-radius: 16px;
position: relative;
margin-top: -10px;
margin-right: 20px;
}
First of all its only color and not font-color: #ffffff; and secondly you should use
#commentslink a { /* Specific selector */
color: #fff;
}
Demo
Let me tell you, the above selector will select all a tags inside the element having #commentslink as an id so if you want to target a nested inside p you can use a more specific selector like
#commentslink .circle p a {
/* Selects all a element nested inside p tag further nested inside an element
having class .circle which is further nested inside an element having
#commentslink as an id
*/
color: #fff;
}
Just don't make your selectors overspecific if you don't really require, else you will end up making more and more nested rules thus bloating your CSS, so go as much basic as you can.
Last but not the least, this has nothing to do with CSS3
Just a good read here.. related to this answer...
Try this with !important
#commentslink {
float: right;
color: #ffffff !important;
font-size: 19px;
font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;
}
and use color: rather than font-color
Elaborating on Mr. Alien's answer, it's best to use the selector #commentslink a. CSS rules are applied in order of specificity, and the style for the a element is more specific than the styling for its parent element (#commentslink). The selector #commentslink a is more specific than either of the others, and will therefore take precedence.
Here's a good article on specificity.
And as others have stated, the property is color not font-color.
#Sobin, !important should be used sparingly, as it will clobber other rules applied to elements within the #comments div. Better to take advantage of specificity.
The "10" is going to be #0eb0d3 because of the CSS styling applied to a tags.
Change
#commentslink {
float: right;
font-color: #ffffff;
font-size: 19px;
font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;
To
#commentslink {
float: right;
font-color: #ffffff !important;
font-size: 19px;
font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;
And it will override the other styling
Replace font-color with color.
#commentslink {
float: right;
color: #ffffff; // this is enough not font-color
font-size: 19px;
font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;
}
Also
a:link, a:visited {
color: #0eb0d3; // Also this a css override
text-decoration: none;
}
Update: I just realized that above won't work. I thought parent's css will override the child. But this is wrong here, since a tags have default color rendered by browsers.
#commentslink a {
color: #ffffff;
}
Thanks #Mr. Alien for his fiddle and the SO link.
I have a button class working like this :
<p class="button">Rejoindre</p>
The CSS is :
p.button
{
background-color: #e74c3c;
line-height: 30px;
width: 200px;
text-align: center;
}
.button a
{
font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;
color: white;
font-size: 0.9em;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
.button a:hover
{
text-decoration: none;
}
How can I make the entire button (represented by the paragraph tag) a link instead of just the text ?
You can put the link tag on the outside to make anything inside it be contained in the link:
<p class="button">Rejoindre</p>
However, you probably want to use something other than a p tag for your button, maybe a button element instead?
More info on HTML buttons.
Add display: block to the .button a ruleset.
http://jsfiddle.net/ExplosionPIlls/UvrKx/
You can add display:block; to you anchor tag.
display: block means that the element is displayed as a block, as
paragraphs and headers have always been. A block has some whitespace
above and below it and tolerates no HTML elements next to it, except
when ordered otherwise (by adding a float declaration to another
element, for instance).
Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/akx3p/
CSS:
p.button
{
background-color: #e74c3c;
line-height: 30px;
width: 200px;
text-align: center;
}
.button a
{
font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;
color: white;
font-size: 0.9em;
text-transform: uppercase;
display: block;
}
.button a:hover
{
text-decoration: none;}
<p> are block elements, meaning that they naturally are at 100% width. If you just added display: block; to the anchor tag, you can make it behave the same way. Here's a fiddle
. That way allows you to get rid of the p tag all together.
I have a page at http://www.problemio.com/problems/problem.php,
and you see on the bottom-right I have a teal image. It is really a link and in that link I can't seem to get the text color to appear white.
Here is my CSS:
.button
{
display: block;
background: #4E9CAF;
padding: 10px;
text-align: center;
border-radius: 5px;
color: white;
text-color: white;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:button.visited
{
display: block;
background: #4E9CAF;
padding: 10px;
text-align: center;
border-radius: 5px;
color: white;
text-color: white;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: none;
}
and here is how I make the link with HTML:
<a class="button" id="follow_problem" href="#" title="...">Follow Problem</a>
Any idea what is going wrong and why the color of the link isn't white?
It appears that you're trying to override the styling of the a:link class Try:
Option 1:
Here is the class you're trying to override:
a:link {
color: #3686A7;
text-decoration: none;
}
You need to add !important to the end of your style declaration:
.button {
color: white !important;
}
Option 2:
You could further define the a:link class rules:
a:link.button {
color: white;
}
That's because a:link (line 95) is more specific than .button (line 109).
You can fix it by changing the rule to
.button,
a:link.button {
/* rules */
}
Tips:
While using !important will work, it is a silly workaround that will eventually get you in trouble, and it is actually a misuse - http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/cascade.html#important-rules
Use Firebug for Firefox, or Chrome's inspect element, to check the css affecting a given element.
In your .button class, use this: color: white !important;. The problem happens because the a style declaration is applied after the .button declaration, in effect cancelling the color you have set in favor of the link 's color property. Using !important ensures the color rule is applied over any other.
That's because you have another class in common_elements.css that has higher priority than .button
a:link
{
color: #3686A7;
text-decoration: none;
}
Try making your .button more prioritized by !important
Hi,
I know that its possible to set the cusor to hand when hovering an object like this:
CSS :
cursor: hand;
cursor: pointer;
This should be done automaticly with a link element that looks like this :
<a onclick="" class="btn1">
<span>Sök</span>
</a>
But In my case its not?
With firebug I can see that the followin CSS is applyed
<a> element
a.btn1 {
background: url("Images/Menus/bg_button_a.gif") no-repeat scroll right top transparent;
color: #444444;
display: block;
float: left;
font: 12px arial,sans-serif;
height: 24px;
margin-right: 6px;
padding-right: 18px;
text-decoration: none;
}
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
body {
font-family: Arial,Verdana,serif;
font-size: 0.81em;
}
And
SPAN element
a.btn1 span {
background: url("Images/Menus/bg_button_span.gif") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
display: block;
line-height: 14px;
padding: 5px 0 5px 18px;
}
Controls.css (rad 80)
* {
margin: 0;
}
a.btn1 {
color: #444444;
font: 12px arial,sans-serif;
text-decoration: none;
}
body {
font-family: Arial,Verdana,serif;
font-size: 0.81em;
}
How can I track down this problem?
BestRegards
The hand appears only if the ANCHOR has a href attribute set.
Live demo: http://jsfiddle.net/KAEbR/
It's likely because your doesn't have a "href" value, you could change it to
<a href="#" onclick="" class="btn1"/>
You can also add the following css to force the hand to always appear for links:
a{ cursor: pointer;}
Without the href attribute the a tag does not declare a hyperlink. If it possesses a name or id attribute, it may declare the destination of a hyperlink instead. (http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/links.html#anchors-with-id)
If the element you want to declare has no semantic resemblance to a hyperlink and you are relying on CSS to make it appear like one, why bother? You might just as well use any old span.
What you should not do is write a { cursor:pointer; } into your CSS, causing any a elements to display a hand on hover, even those that are not hyperlinks. Instead you should add a href attribute like has been suggested. As a value you could enter # if there is no non-JavaScript functionality to fall back on. Otherwise you should enter the URI of the resource you want to link to.
See also Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML_element#Anchor
That's not a link. Links have href attributes. That's just an anchor that runs JavaScript when clicked.
