Bootstrap background body color white container + website not showing correctly

**mlegg** · 02-24-2017, 10:44 PM

I cloned my website original website to make new website. On the original, the page is all white with the blue text. The original page works correctly but the new page does not show the background html red and the entire page doesn't show properly even though the html is validated. I want it to appear similar to this pagehttp://stnickporticons.com/ where the color is on the outside on the html and the middle is all white

On the new page I tried to add

Code:

html {
background-color: red; }

body {
color: #036;
font-size: 2rem;
background-color: #fff; }

This is the custom css for the original page

Code:

body {
  color: #036;
  font-size: 2rem;
  background-color: #fff; }

The page you are trying to emulate is based on the Bootstrap framework and has these three lines in the <head>:

Code:

<link href="css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="css/church-theme.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="css/colorbox.css" rel="stylesheet">

I think you'll find that the "bootstrap.min.css" file contains what you need, but it may be difficult to find it in a minimised file.

I solved it with this

Code:

html {
  background-color: red;
}
body { 
  color: #036;
  font-size: 2rem;
  background-color: #fff; 
  width: 90%;
 margin: 0 auto
}
