css for admin pages
Hi,

some of ym problems obvipously stemmed from the characters in the admin-(top) Frame being too big (the link to 'help' was 'below' the line)

So I would like to define a css-file for ALL admin frames.

How do I do this?

I looked through the admin-directory, but I am rather inept in cgi/pl, so I have no idea where to modify...

I seem to be:

I put in the css-lines thingy and get:

Error including libraries: Can't find string terminator "~" anywhere before EOF at /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/carpegas/literaturwelt-cgi/admin/admin_html.pl line 1636.

Make sure they exist, permissions are set properly, and paths are set correctly.I guess i failed to escape the " ?I said I was a layman when it comes to pl ;)

Post the codes you are attempting to add, or better yet, attach your edited admin_html.pl and we may be able to help you.

However, a basic understanding of Perl may help you in the future, too.

I was adding:

<head>

<LINK rel="STYLESHEET" type="text/css" href="../../css/carpe.css">

<title>Links Manager: Administration</title>

(always at this point and always identically)

I attatch the file. ( I renamed it plx to keep it apart from the corect backup)

(and will have a look at perl ;) )

Heckler,

I have deleted your post above which I felt was inappropriate. I would have preferred to let you know via pm but as you don't allow people to pm you then I've had to post this message.

a) Instead of accling a website my windoews system (98 second) suggests that I download or open a cgi-file

b) when I 'open' it, I get (a wordpad file as 'locally' cgi is associated with wordpad):

"Error including libraries: Bad name after Hardware' at /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/carpegas/literaturwelt-cgi/admin/admin_html.pl line 249.

Make sure they exist, permissions are set properly, and paths are set correctly."

All replaced:

Reaction:

Error including libraries: Bad name after Hardware' at /usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/carpegas/literaturwelt-cgi/admin/admin_html.pl line 249.

Make sure they exist, permissions are set properly, and paths are set correctly.



I attach the file again. (It is renamed, I always name it correctly on the server...)
