    Default trying to make my first stylesheet

    Okay I am looking for a specific "look". I want my store background and then tables on top of it that are translucent. I searched for four hours last night for HTML code or CSS code that would enable me to achieve the right look. Finally, I resorted to my myspace page and a generator. I got this code: (HTML I think, but I pasted it into GoLive CSS doc.)

    body{ background: white url(http://houseofdiva.com/zencart/inclu.../tile_back.jpg) no-repeat fixed center top; } Table, Td{ background-color:transparent; } table table table{ background-color:transparent; background-image:url(http://img113.imageshack.us/img113/9...white2qk.png); background-repeat:repeat; width:100%; border-color:000000; border-style:Outset; border-width:1px; } table table table table{ background-image:none; width:auto; } table table table table, table table table td{ border-style:none; }</Style>
    <table width="90%" border="1" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="2">}





    My question is this. This code achieves what I want. Where would I put it specifically, in a CSS doc. Like a blank basic CSS page document. I think I've seen HTML in a css doc, is that correct? or not allowed? if you look at my myspace page (lame I know) you'll see the effect I'm looking for with a diff. background/colors. But the tables and the translucence with solid text is the effect.

    ETA: the code when generated was this solid block, there was other myspace stuff on it that I took out. But it was just a big paragraph like this when it was gen.

    Exactly which part of the page are you wanting to do this to?

    I don't know Kim. LOL. You can do it to different parts of the page? I just want two main tables. Not a bunch of little ones. Then I can put text in them and maybe an image. Does that answer what you asked?

    You have a mockup of what you want the page to look like?

    Yeah the link in the first post goes to my myspace page. That shows how I want the tables to be see through but not the text etc. Instead of transparency I wanted them translucent. The code I pasted actually has the correct background and table color however. The Myspace page is just an example of what I'm talking about. I only want two tables in the middle of the page. Both to equal the same width as Zen cart now, but one 25% and the other 25%. So the table on the left would be a narrower one and the table right next to it would be wider. Is that clear or confusing? I am trying to draw something in Adobe Photoshop to represent what I want the elements to look like when styled to give you a less confusing thread.
