How to Use HTML & CSS With MySpace

Add cool themes to your MySpace page with HTML and CSS code.

Using HTML (hypertext markup language) and CSS (cascading style sheets) code with your MySpace page allows you to customize your page's background and pictures, rearrange your layout and add themes. It also allows you to add unique applications like slide shows and drawing applications to entertain visitors of your page.

Instructions

1. Visit a website that can generate code for you, unless you can write HTML and CSS code.

2. Use the tools of the HTML generator of your choice to adjust background color, layout, heading and text; some sites even allow you to upload custom pictures.

3. Choose from layouts that have already been designed for you if you don't want to create your own layout.

4. Preview the layout, then choose the "Generate Layout" option. You will be presented with a page of text. The text you see here is a list of commands that make up the layout.

5. Highlight all of the text, and on your keyboard press Ctrl+C. Log into your MySpace page.

6. 

   Click on "Edit Profile" link, then the "About Me" option. If you have a musician's profile, click "Band Details," then click the "Edit" option near the section labeled "Bio."

7. Click below any text that you may have already entered into this box. Hit the space bar on your keyboard a couple of times, the press Ctrl+V. This will paste the HTML code into the box.

8. Click the "Submit" option, and your new layout is ready.
