I have looked in css.php and adminfunctions_template.php and so far have not been able to figure out how css variables are added. Does anyone know? I know I could use replacements, but I would prefer to fully implement my changes so they are stored in the .css sheets. If anyone knows how to do this can you please tell me? Thanks.

I think he's talking about adding more options to the css page in admincp and where to edit the php to add it into the database.

Like more setings? more CSS definitions?

Theres an extra CSS option area at the bottom.

Well I know. I want to add them as tables like for example, First Alternate color is customized in a special area on the .css page. I currently have got the areas to show up in css.php, but I need to make it so the values I set there are saved when I save the page.

Why go though all that trouble when you can just manually add the other CSS definitions?

I dunno, just was hoping it as possible. Looks more official. I was working on sort of a small hack and wanted it to look fully implemented. :(

The only person who would ever see this is you, if you need to brushup on your css you can try

lol, I know, but I prefer hard coding as opposed to custom coding. I dunno. Just figured someone might know. No biggie. :)

EDIT: Well after working at it a bit more I was able to get it to work. Fully integrated. :)

Hard coding, would mean not using thoughs wysiwyg type editors for each CSS value you know

Well I know. I meant harcoding the system for selecting the colors. ;)

I got it now though. I had been doing this in VB2 but it was a lot easier. It's not that much harder in VB3 but you have to do a little searching around.

(And I could have sworn I was editing my post 2 posts ago when I made that other post.. weird. It made a new post..)
