"Not much work at all. All the colours are controlled by a CSS stylesheet. I'm toying with making the path to the sylesheet a preference so you can write your own if you want."

PerlMonks uses this approach and it's quite nice because it's so configurable. Custom H2G2 CSS would be very smiley - cool. Any thoughts of supporting stylesheet switching in the future?

Hi Biriyani Man

It's probably best to leave a message on Promord's space U189596.

p.s. using capital letters is considered around here to be like shouting

More likely from a digibox. It happens quite a lot.

kea ~ Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small, unregarded but very well read blue and white website

as an unpaid up member of the paranoia club the tag is somewhat disconcerting.

can't wait to put it on my page though smiley - biggrin


is there an explanation for this tag somewhere?

We don't need no stinking explanations... just put it wherever you like on your page... in the middle of a sentence, at the end or a paranoia inducing question... wherever you think it will be most effective! smiley - laugh

i'm sure i'll have fun with it over the weekend smiley - winkeye

actually i was wondering how pheloxi* knew about it. is it part of today's new changes? or is it something separate. it must be written down >somewhere< surely?(i'm wondering what other goodies there are hidden away...)

thanks pheloxi*.

does that mean its not an official thing yet (the tag)?

i'm learning guideML at the moment and am trying to keep track of the different things in use (the tag isn't on the gML clinic page)

what i'm trying to understand is how anyone would know about it if you hadn't posted here.
