Using CSS to change the background colour

Hi Jennifer,

I hope you enjoyed today's Dreamweaver Introduction course.

There are a number of ways to set the background colour of an entire web page. It's good practice to use CSS to achieve this to comply with W3C standards.

In Dreamweaver, redefine the BODY tag to include the background-colour attribute with a colour of your choosing. (CSS -> New style -> Redefine -> Dialogue box -> background)

Or you can set the Page Properties (see Modify menu).

You may also like to simply set a table's or table's cell background colour. To do this, select the element, then see the Properties panel to change the background colour.

I hope this helps.

Regards, Rich
