Good point, I didn't think about that... I just realized that now that we're in charge of creating the window hosting the web browser, we can just make it somewhat smaller, which will cause the default colors to remain visible behind the browser. This actually makes the skinning superfluous, save for the menu button. I think we should be able to make the menu button follow the actual Windows theme somehow, too... Aren't there IE-specific CSS values to say "window background color"? > There's a built-in calendar control that we can mimic > color-wise.

Yeah, I think CSS for customization is still cool, but it's no longer strictly necessary to make it look good. At least I think not. > But that's the great thing about open-source I only have > to work on the features I want :) :) :-p - Kim ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IntelliVIEW -- Interactive Reporting Tool for open source databases.
