hello. I asked about this many times but didn't get the answer I want. I wish someone will help me out. the issue is that I need to change the colors in the argeebee theme. I don't seem to know what might change the colors in that css file. I read it over and over. the author of the theme tried to help me out, but his reply was fast and didn't exactly specify what I need to do. I am a blind administrator of drupal and do know what rgb values desired colors may have, and can also identify the bit of code needed,. I understand php and css quite fine. alas, the css file in the argeebee file is non standard. what I exactly need to change is the colors of the text and links. if possible I also want to know how to change the font type or size. before I baste the code in that css file I wonder, where can I get the cvs version of drupal 4.7 so that I try it on my localhost? ------ /**** colors ****/ /**** light ****/ /*** backgrounds ***/ #leftnav .block, #rightnnav .block {background-color: #fff;} /*** foreground ***/ #leftnav .block p, #leftnav .block ul, #leftnav .block li, #leftnav .block a, #rightnav .block p, #rightnav .block ul, #rightnav .block li, #rightnav .block a {background-color: #fff;} /*** borders ***/ #leftnav .block, #rightnav .block {border-color: #ddd;} /**** base ****/ /*** backgrounds ***/ #container, #leftnav, #rightnav {background-color: #fff;} /*** foreground ***/ #container p, #leftnav p, #rightnav p {color: #222;} /*** borders ***/ #container, #leftnav, #rightnav {border-color: black;} /**** highlights ****/ /*** backgrounds ***/ #top, #footer {background-color: #ddd;} /*** foreground ***/ #top, #top a, #footer, #footer p, #container a {color: #aaa;} /*** borders ***/ #top, #footer {border-color: #ddd;} -------- regards, Mohammed al-shar'

Why have you deleted the previous answers including the one I have given you? Have you been doing what I suggested or is it not possible if you are blind? Actually I don't understand how you can work with CSS in the first place if you can't see the result? or do you have some kind of speech synthesizer telling you how the web pages look like? or have I totaly misunderstand you?

hello. actually, I would like first to warmly thank you. second, I would like to precisely use that theme, cause nothing seemed to fit the website better. I tried all the other available themes. what makes it even more complex is that the web site is set up to handle both arabic (a right to left language), and english. and yes, I use a very complicated technology to design my websites that is a screen reader. thank you again. ----- Original Message ----- From: johan To: drupal-support@drupal.org Sent: Sunday, November 06, 2005 2:09 PM Subject: Re: [drupal-support] urgent, please I need help

Hello Mohammed al-shar',
I downloaded the theme to look over the files. There are two files worth noting: layout.css and style.css. It helped greatly to read the theme's description and goal - it revealed why the non-standard css file is built the way it is. It also was key to see the other files in the theme to see how the author was achieving his goal.
There are only nine colors in this theme, and only two that are text colors.
/*** foreground ***/ #container p, #leftnav p, #rightnav p {color: #222;}
This above section seems to control all the text. Everywhere. Change the #222 to the desired color for text.
/*** foreground ***/ #top, #top a, #footer, #footer p, #container a {color: #aaa;}
And this section controls the link color and the top-title color. Change the #aaa to the desired color for links.
That's it. There are no other css declarations in either layout.css or style.css that affect text colors.
if possible I also want to know how to change the font type or size.
That would be done in the layout.css file of the theme.

I'll let someone experienced with CVS answer that one.
