An issue with Kubrick

  • Ok, i’m working with the Kubrick design and have customized it. I made my own header and have gotten it all to work… though i’ve removed the headers ability to link back… which i’m trying to fix right now. The thing is, i don’t want and text on my header…. I’ve tried a few things, one of them being this:
    https://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/graphicalcss/header/index.html
    I’ve also tried this in the index.php:
    <div id="headerimg"> <h1> <span> Text here to describe my site </span> </h1>
    </div>
    companied with this in the css:
    #header {
    padding: 1px;
    height: 198px;
    width: 758px;
    background: url("images/kubrickheader.png") no-repeat bottom center;
    }
    #headerimg {
    margin: 7px 9px 0;
    height: 192px;
    width: 740px; }
    #headerimg h1 a {
    height: 100%;
    display: block;
    }
    #headerimg hi a span {
    display:none;
    }
    it seems to work in IE though it screws up the placement of the header image for some reason (though it does make it all a link…. and in FF it just makes the words a link….
    any idea?

    I guess i’m done messing with it for now…. so you can see where i stopped playing on my test site at
    https://www.osterbrink.org/wordpress
    yes, i know the images break the tables in IE… this is just a testing site and all i’m worried about now is getting the header to link…
    thanks in advance.

    you rock,,, I didnt realize that there was an FAQ for the template!

    if you want to hide the title and caption, try locating “h1” in the css file, and then add: output: none;
    that oughtta smote the bugger.
    f.

    Better still – display: none;

    …which is exactly what the Dev said in the link above. ^_^

    Or, if you need to actually keep the element’s vertical space like I had to (I wanted to supress the <H1> in my header, but not the following , you do a
    visibility: hidden;
    in the CSS for the element (in this case, for the <H1> for your header, and Voil??!
    You get the vertical space, but not the physical output…

    indeed…
    my english is terrible.
    {
    display:none;
    }

    the problem with setting the h1 tag to display: none; is that all of your h1 tags will disappear.
    why not create a floating style in the css document like:
    .invisible {
    display: none;
    }
    and then, in index.php, just add this to the h1 tag:
    <h1 class=”invisible”>
    you can then reuse the “invisible” class any time you run into a similar problem…
