Style Sheet woes...
I'm sure many people love them, but I REALLY don't like the default css setting and I know NOTHING about setting them up. Hell, I spent 3 days getting the original 1.1 version matching the rest of my site using site_html.pl and now that I've upgraded to 2.0 it looks terrible on my site. (No offense to whomever designed the stock css, it just doesn't go with my site AT ALL!)

How do I return to using the site_html.pl to determine the look of the script?

But then I lose all of my settings that I spent 3 days working on in 1.1, correct?

I tried copying my old site_html.pl file to the admin directory (I added those new fucntions from upgrade.txt) and then I lost all the new features... (rate it, etc...)

Uhg. How can I use the new stuff? The new site_html.pl doesnt look NEARLY as easy to modify as the old one.. where does the header go?

Check out what I mean,
old links:
http://www.tailsout.com/members/links/
new links:
http://www.tailsout.com/members/links2/pages/

I guess Im gonna have to figure out how the templates work now... *sigh* Progress is a b*itch. <g>

Hey Dead Air, if you're using 'site_html.pl', then just delete <css> in all <head> tags. It will turn CSS off.

I finally figured that out. Smile Well, Someone else posted that here and I was like...

"Oh."

Smile Easy enough. Now I'm plodding away at my site_html.pl file again. <g>
