Can we change link colors?	Reply to this Post Reply with Quote
	[Delete this Thread]

I am a new localendar user and I've just begun creating a public calendar for a diving club (http://www.localendar.com/public/gcdivers). I plan to use different color backgrounds for different types of events.

But I've noticed that visited links turn to light yellow, and are sometimes difficult to read after the've been visited.

Can I change the link color scheme to avoid conflicts with the event background colors?

Link colors are currently set based on the color preferences you have set in your browser. As part of the CSS support we are adding, you will be able to override a person's browser settings.

Thanks, Marc...

So when will the CSS support be added?

Thanks,

Soon

We still haven't done a general roll-out of the forums yet, which is on queue to happen first.

Also, given the Firefox 1.0 release today, we're doing a lot of testing to make sure pages render/behave correctly

THEN, css smile

It depends. Some of the fonts can be changed by surrounding the text with a tag (or other tags such as <big> and ). That will change the font face/size/color of any text you enter. The font size/face of month/day names and titles is currently not editable (but will be as part of the CSS enhancement noted above)

Well, besides the billion books and web sites on HTML... wink

You can do things like
This text is bold
<big>This text is big</big>
<big><big>This text is biger</big></big>

Font tag example

This text is small

etc.. etc.. Any HTML will work in the event title, description, calendar title, or calendar footer.

how do i keep a one-line entry on the same line? Your program randomly splits it into two lines.
For example John Doe, becomes
John
Doe
in your program.

I'm assuming the actual text that's split must be a lot longer. Lines are wrapped if a hard-return is pressed, or the or HTML tags are used.

Also, a browser will automatically wrap text when necessary for space reasons.

If you want to use a space that *won't ever* break (well, almost never biggrin

), you can use the HTML code for a "non-breakable space". That is:  

So "John Doe" would become "John Doe"

But, you should rarely need to do this. The text shoudn't wrap unless it has to.
