Welcome to the Searchable KJV Bible Help File.

This Bible is a series of web pages, each page containing a single chapter of the Bible. When you click on a Chapter in the index, it takes you to the web page containing that chapter.

For example, If you wish to view Genesis Chapter Three, simply click on the "3" as in the example below.

That will take to you to Genesis Chapter Three (below)

Legend:

1. Title Element
2. Link to Previous Chapter
3. Book Name
4. Return to Index Link
5. Current Chapter Number
6. Verse
7. (Not Shown) Link to Next Chapter (after last verse of current chapter)

Simply scroll down to the verse you wish to view.

Linking To Verses

Each Bible Chapter is a single web page, as we discussed before. Each web page has a coded name. For example, in the code for Genesis 1 is "B01C001.htm". If you wish to make a link to a particular chapter, simply enter the code for that chapter. The code is simple:

The first three characters are the Book Number
The last four characters are the Chapter Number

If you wish to link to Esther Chapter 3, the code would be B17C003. Esther is Book 17; the chapter is 3. To link to Matthew 17, use the list below to determine that Matthew is Book # 40; the Chapter is 17. The code is B40C017. The file name for Esther 3 is "B16C003.htm". The file name for Matthew 17 is "B40C017.htm".

To link to a specific verse in Matthew 17, say verse 21, the file name is B40C017.htm#V21. Since each verse is book-marked, each verse number must be preceded by "#V". Always use a capital "V" because these links are case sensitive.

Included in your link must be the URL address. For example, if your URL Address is C:\My Documents, then the link would be C:\My Documents\B40C017.htm#V21.

Here is the link for Matthew 17:21 at The Bible Church: http://www.bibleword.org/KJV/B40C017.htm#V21.

Click on it and try it (you must be online for this link to work).

Here is a list of the book numbers for the books of the Bible:

Using the "style1.css" style sheet.

The "Chapter" element is H1. To change the font attributes (size, color, weight, or style) of 'Chapter", simply edit the "H1" section of the style sheet using a text editor such as Notepad, or a word processor like Word by changing the font attributes

For example, the "Chapter" element is currently Arial Rounded MT Bold. It is 16 Points, Bold, and the Color is Black. It looks like this:

If we wanted to make it Broadway 22 point, not bold, and change the color to red, it would look like this (the changes are in blue):

Using html 4.0, you may use color names. Here we could write out the color name "red" instead of "#ff0000". Some browsers out there do not use html 4.0 so if you wrote out the color name the color would revert to default (black) with those browsers. It is your choice. There are only certain colors that can be written out in html 4.0. Here are some of them:

Here are the different styles used in this Bible software:

Chapter is H1

Book is H2

"King James Version" is H3

All verses are H4

To add a background, go to the "Body" section of the style sheet and type the link to the image you wish to use in the parenthesis ( ) after the phrase " background-image:url". Replace anything that is already there with your image link. DO NOT change anything there or else the script will not work.

For example, if your background image is titled "background.gif", and the image file is in the same folder as the bible files, then the script would look like this (the red color is added for emphasis and is not necessary in the script):

If the image is in a different folder than the bible files, such as "My Pictures", then the script would appear as follows:

After making the changes save "style1.css" to incorporate them.
 

Here are the contents of style1.css:
