Font Style Sheets

expbul2d.gif (852 bytes) A note about browsers. This section describes how to add the Cascading Style Sheets for font settings. Only 4.0 browsers (MSIE 4.0 or Navigator 4.0) fully support cascading style sheets. If you want visitors with lessor browsers to see a font style or color, you will have to manually set the text in your page. If you do this, you should make sure your settings are compatable with the Font Settings in 'theme.css', and the Font Colors in 'color0.css'. You should check how your pages look in both an older browser and one of the 4.0 browsers. Personally, I wouldn't bother with any font settings, because the visitor probably doesn't have the font any way, and I would use extra colors sparingly.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="theme.css" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="color0.css" type="text/css">

Note: Use color1.css if you want the vivid colors for your theme

You can edit the theme.css and color0.css Cascading Style Sheet files. The changes that you make in these files, will be applied to all your pages that link to them. This makes it very easy to change the Font or Text Colors for all your pages at once. I did run into one problem, not all of my text was showing up in the desired font. So I added the following sections to my theme.css file:

font
{
    font-family: book antiqua;
}
p
{
    font-family: book antiqua;
}
table, tr, td
{
    font-family: book antiqua;
}
