I have made it so, that the shoutbox at the index page is made as fast as posible since particually this page should slow the site as litle as posible. - this invloves static stylesheets, while the "max" shoutbox uses the data from the DB (dynamic style sheets).
if you have a template (style) witch display wrong colors this is most likely due to the fact that the stylesheet was simply copyed from subsilver....
To correct this behavier
you need to browse to your site, in MS IE you may right click anywhere (where the colors are displaying correct) and select the "view source"
This will show you the HTML source in a text editor...the source file will show you how your current dynamic style sheet is configured - since this is a working version, it is a easy way to get a copy of it, and make this as as your new static style sheet.
to do that - al you need is:
Copy that part of the code witch invloves the stylesheet.
starting with
- Code: Select all
<style type="text/css">
and ending with
- Code: Select all
-->
</style>
the code should be placed near the top of the source
YOU SHOULD NOT include the above tags...only the text found inbetween
Then paste this code into your "templates/sometemplate/sometemplate.css" file - replacing the existing content of the file.
the name "sometemplate" is a example name - you should substitude this with the name of your current template -e.g. for subsilver the name is:
templates/subSilver/subSilver.css
(please make a back-up first)
your colors should now display correctly inside the min shoutbox found at the index page.
