?? Dreamweaver separate text colors

Report · Nov 29, 2018

Hi,

I have Dreamweaver I bought and used it from 2008 to now just purchased dreamweaver 2018 and cant figure out how to make each text in a table a different color. If I change 1 text color all the text colors change. I just want to change the color in each little area of the table. I could do it before just don't know how to do it on dreamweaver 2018.

thanks

Without seeing your code, this remains a very broad question.

I'll show you how I would go about getting colours into a table. Copy and paste the following code into a new document to see the result.

<!doctype html>
<html><head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">

                </tr>
                <tr>

                </tr>
              </tbody>
            </table>

Result:

Wappler, the only real Dreamweaver alternative.

Before you follow Ben's advice, you need to make a decision about using Bootstrap. If you've already decided to use Bootstrap, you can stop reading now.

Bootstrap is a third-party, open source SS/JavaScript framework that Adobe has included as an option in Dreamweaver for building pages. Know that to use it effectively, requires a fairly good grounding in CSS and HTML coding. Know also that Bootstrap is a fairly polarizing thing, embraced by some, but by no means all.

If you'd like to learn an alternative, and arguably simpler way to create a table, and style it, using Dreamweaver's built-in dialogs and code editors, just let me know. Otherwise, best of luck to you.
