in reply to Perl-blue theme
in thread PerlMonks CSS Examples

I'm a CSS newbie. Still I liked the look of this theme and thought I'd try it out. I put the link

http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=167905&displaytype=displayco +de
into the Link to External CSS stylesheet: box and hit submit. Suddenly my User Settings page looked lovely.

However the Monastery Gates look awful. "New Questions" takes up a full browser screen.

I think the relevant html is here:

<tr class =" section_title" width =" 100%" border =" 1"> <td class =" section_title" width =" 100%"> New Questions </td> </tr>
I've copied your theme into my On-Site CSS Markup: code and made the following change:
td.section_title { color: #fff; background-color: #069; - font-size: 26em; + font-size: 26px; font-family: Georgia, serif; }

This looks heaps better.

I hope this helps.

    Thanks for tracking that one down! I had numerous reports about it from people, but have only been here very occasionally in the past 2 months or so and haven't had the tuits to look into it. There's also a number of other minor niggles I've been made aware of, but none of them is as much of an issue — nevertheless of course I hope to get to them sometime soon.

    Glad you liked it. :)
