Hi Robert & Mark,

I've had quite a long play with various combinations on the Legacy web creation section with the following results:

Firstly a correction, I have found a "blockquote" on the Pedigree contents page but as no parameters are given one can do what one wants with it from a css.

I have been unable to eliminate all the Legacy headers from the output as it insists on putting the specification and a few "meta" tags in. Hence the "/head" and "body" tags from Legacy cannot be eliminated. I cannot find a way of overcoming this. Whilst it is not a big problem per se, as far as I can see it can only be cut on a page by page basis.

I would like to be able to alter the colour of the windows. I see, Mark, that you have done this but cannot see how this can be done other than by changing the individual lines on each page (which is what I do by changing to a css class).

Additionally, I would like to be able to change the background and "Family Links" colour on their heading but cannot see how to do this except page by page.

There are other things I like to change but I know that this is an "all purpose" generator so some work can be expected. I would have thought, however, that to place all the backgrounds borders and fonts in a css at the start of the "body" would not present a large problem.

Hi Rob,

You are quite right in what you say here but this is because the css link is included in the body and hence comes after and therefore takes precedence over the body tag defining the bground color.

I haven't checked the above out but I'm going to have a good play with these parts of Legacy today so will come back later.

Ron,

After following this thread, I experimented with an external CSS link and
found that it was possible to change background colour by this method. It
appears to override the "BGCOLOR" which Legacy puts just above the external
CSS link. The contents of my CSS file is as follows and gives quite a nice
effect on a Family group web page. The background image is of course
optional and would need to be changed to your own path.



Regards,

Robert Silverwood
