Default Changing Template Problem? - 07-05-2004 , 11:07 AM






Hi,

I'm new to dreameweaver and have been passed on a site which uses CSS's and
templates. The problem I have is that if I make a change to the template
(default.dwt) when the site displayed in explorer it's fonts and colours aren't
the same as the template. This happens even if I don't make changes to the
fonts and colours?

Any ideas what I've done to cause this, as I follow the on-screen prompts to
update the site?

Regards,

Andrew

It would be hard to say without looking at your template page and its
underlying code. Can you show me, please?

By the way, attachments are discouraged for this and other Macromedia
forums, and to make matters worse, they do not carry forward from the
webforums into the NNTP forums, which is where most of the people who post
answers are visiting. If you want to broadcast your code so that everyone
can see it, the really only way is a) to paste it into a reply (not great if
there is lots of code), or b) to upload it somewhere and post a URI to it.

Be aware that if you paste voluminous quantities of code into a reply, the
code may get truncated when transferring to the NNTP forum. This can be
quite confusing to both poster, and reader. The best bet would be to upload
the page and post a URI.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

What code would you need to see, just the default.dwt code or the CSS as well?

Regards,

Andrew

Both would be good - but if you link me to the page, I can get the
stylesheet.

I haven't got the page up anywhere, just on my laptop at the moment, although I've attached a zip containg the site. Hope this is ok?

Nope - as I have said, attachments don't work here....
