Howdy all,

I've been 'volunteered" (again) to fix a site that uses a 3rd party theme, I want to reset the font size from 12 to 10 via CSS.

The theme seems to have 5 or 6 linked style sheets...graphic0, graphic1, color0, color1, mstheme,...etc.

I can't seem to find what's controlling the font size (I tried a change in what I thought was it - in mstheme but it didn't work).

If I change the CSS on the font size would the change be retroactive (change existing pages)?

In the end I know I'll end up creating one style sheet to make it simpler but not now...:-)

Depends on the theme options and html elements being used
Don't edit any of those 5 files (FP will overwrite your edits)
Edit the Theme
Format Theme Customize Text - More Text Styles
Also See http://sbrenjoy.bizland.com/frontpag...newthemes.html

Don't assume consolidating multiple files is the solution. You should spend
some more time undetrstanding what CASCADING actually means and how
cascading actually functions. It was the term 'specificity' that I didn't
understand until I started devising complex style declarations. You may very
well find that the previous designer chose multiple files to achieve
specificity which is the dummies way or lazy way out of calculating
specificity when using complex declarations in a single file.

clinton,
yah, I'm still a beginner with CSS.

The theme they bought was a professional one from pixelmill or something...it's nice...but complicated finding stuff.
