617951 2007-12-04 20:04:00 Hi all

I am currently rebuilding a website under a completely different template.

The template he wants is good, but it has the wrong colour scheme.

He has asked me to change it, but I have no experience with CSS - what the template uses.

Does anyone out there know how to change the scheme to green (from the current blue)?

All help appreciated as usual.

617953 2007-12-04 21:04:00 is this an external style sheet i.e. linked? if it is it'll be a lot easier to do all you have to do is edit the one sheet and change all the colour codes to whatever you want e.g./

A:link { color: #003000 ;text-decoration: none} - unvisited links

just change the colour code

617955 2007-12-04 21:12:00 it looks like a lot of work to do manually. have you tried using the suggested freeware at the top of the style sheet? www.newsgator.com
I use notepad++
if you look at the style sheet, where ever there is a rgb(x,x,x) that is referring to a colour depending on the red green blue value.

But in answer to your question on changing from blue to green, you have to figure out what colour each of the rgb values is & change it to a shade of green. Not an easy task with that .css file.
