CSS

This is probably a really simple question but this is only my second day
using FrontPage 2003! I have applied a theme, inserted a table with one row
and two columns. In the first column I have inserted a simple image and in
the second column I have added some text. I then defined "h1" in my css and
attached this style sheet which changed "h1" to comic sans, red and size
36pt. This all looks fine in frontpage "preview" but not when i preview it in
IE, the font appears as upper case, white different font type. Can anyone
help?

Thanks C

Can you provide a link to your page so that we can see the source to
find where the error has been made.

Thanks.

If you use a theme, the theme styles will over-rule your own CSS, if
your CSS is in an external style sheet or embedded in the <head> section
of the page.

To change the format for H1 either use inline styles (if only for 1
page) or customise the theme to change H1 on all pages.

For 1 page:

<h1 style="font-size: 36pt;font-family:"comic
sans",sans-serif;color:red;">header text here</h1>

To customise the theme, with a page open:

Format->Themes
Select the current theme and choose Customize from the dropdown
Click Text button
In the Item dropdown, choose Heading 1
Pick the font from the list
Click OK

Click Colors button
Click Custom tag
Change the item dropdown to Heading 1
Change the color to your choice
Click OK
Click Save As button and give the edited theme a new name - you CANNOT
overwrite the original theme, it must have a new name. I suggest you
don't use the suggested "Copy of ..." that FP offers and use something
smaller.
Click OK, click OK

Now remove the old theme from your pages and replace with the new theme.
Format->Themes
Choose the new theme
Select as default for all pages from the dropdown.
