I've noticed in DELAVO the main.css file has changed somewhat. Could someone please tell me what the

/* ATK styles */
/* JIN styles */

effect exactly?

I know what the rest of the css styles are affecting and I can see that the ATK and JIN styles effect some of the perl files but what exactly are they being used to modify? What pages i.e. tools->templates? or affiliates->manage?

I'm NOT saying those are the pages affected but using them as just examples so I can find out exactly which pages the user is seeing in master/member areas.

thanks
Jim

James,

Te best way to discover it is to experience with it.
I strongly doubt you'll find someone who know these by heart...
Unless that one goes himself into the files to check i out.
Back to what I was saying.

One thing for sure is that CSS is not to change styles in the
PERL files, but for templates.

Andre,

In JVM2 the /* ATK styles */ affected the header/footer templates because tables were used. In DELAVO they are using <div> to create the tables thus a different set of css styles. BUT the /* ATK styles */ styles are still there.

When a search is performed for these and the /* JIN styles */ css styles they are found in perl script files. AND YES they DO change formatting in PERL files WHEN PERL is being used to create html or xhtml files!

I just can't seem to track down the exact displayed pages that are being affected. I know the PERL pages that are being effected but not the exact location in the master/members area.

PERL just like PHP can be used to display html and xhtml pages and if the CSS files are there they WILL affect the display thus when they are found in PERL files they WILL also affect the html and xhtml page when displayed in a browser.

Regards,

Jim ;D

Yes true, I know. Just so you know I designed the old F interface btw...

Cool, so you know enough to experiment with this like I suggested then :D

I just thought that it was not necessary to go into all the nitty-gritty details,
which 99% of users won't understand anyway ;)

Good job on the old F interface Andre!

Yes I could experiment but thought it would be quicker if I knew where to look...lol After all time is money... ;)

But I'll mess around with it and see what happens...

Jim

PS if anyone can tell me directly which pages are being affected by those styles I'd still like to hear from you :)

Never mind I found out what they effect. Thanks for the help though, really appreciate it!
