Forum fonts & colors

**GaTk** · 06-06-2005, 12:16 PM

I am having a difficult time reading this forum as the font size on my display is too small for my very old eyes.

I am using Mozilla/Firefox and increasing font size has had no effect on this forum displays.

IIs there a "preferencs" area that will allow me to configure KNOPPIX FORUM pages.... fonts and colors ?

Thanks

I've no problem changing the size on the forum.

Mozilla Firefox 1.0.4

Can you change the font size on other sites?

I always have font hassels ... what i do now is ...

In opera i have the facility to use a customised "style sheet" ...

So, i just did a wget on the style-sheet urls, as recorded in a saved page ... for both here and a couple of other places. Then edit the fields to suit. Along with adding fields etc.

Some of the paths you would be looking for here are ...

Code:

http://www.knoppix.net
css/knoppix.css
templates/Morpheus/formIE.css
templates/Morpheus/style_blue.css

That should provide pretty much all thats relevant. The character set is also set to "UTF-8", but that dosen't give me any problems. I wouldn't know how firefox reacts though ...

It would involve a degree of tweaking, as a lot of the path references in those files are "url gets" from server roots ... But, once thats all resoved ... iv'e never been more satisfied with what i get now in terms of fonts/colourisations.

Iv'e found that attacking it from a customised style-sheet angle, tends to widen the available choice of settings compared to what my browser allows itself.

I would have thought that a font size change would have had an effect though ?, unless it's been over-ridden by another setting. Which would be the case if you have style-sheets enabled (not customised, that is)
