Hi!

I've entered my name in the first and my month of birth in the second prompt and the text I read after that was the one you wanted me to read (like expected).

Can you describe your color problem a bit more detailed? Like: whole document background color has to be blue, all the text white... or something within a table...

Cheers - Pit

alright well I've incorportated what I've been given (Thanks a lot people :D) and now want to import a border for the top of my page.

<href="urlhere"> ...i'm guessing that wouldnt be right?

http://www.sfgoth.com/~perki/resume/samples/horoscope.gif

^- That's the image I'd like to input.

..should it be <h1>http://www.sfgoth.com/~perki/resume/samples/horoscope.gif</h1> or what? Thanks guys.

Besides the above..i have one more thing I'd like to do.

I'd like to incorportate a small logo (each astrological sign)

Right before the Horoscope of the day so for instance we'll let ® = the Logo.

® You will Die a Terrible Terrible Death.


Thanks for the help guys (and/or girls :P)

Put the horoscope text into a <li> with an id and define the bullet for a <li> with that id to be the associated astro icon.

li#aries {
list-style-image: url(images/ariesbullet.gif);
}
li#taurus {
list-style-image: url(images/taurusbullet.gif);
}

And in the page,

<ul>
<li id="aries">Don't butt heads with your boss!</li>
<li id="taurus">Bully day all round!</li>
</ul>

Obviously you can (and SHOULD) define all the other aspects of how the list should be presented in the style sheet, too.

Well, for one, it didn't work for me.
Kept giving me the horoscope for June 22-July 22, saying my sign is Cancer -- it's actually Gemini.
