Dear Doug:
Thanks for the information on the holidays file, and yes, a feature
request is coming soon....
Thanks for the iheads up on the new tool that is coming. I do
appreciate the attention you have given to the names problem.
In the questions about the Css, I was not asking how to code the
css, but if someone could modify WebCal so that it could use
stylesheets instead of writing the css each time the WebCal is used?
Being able to have multiple css stylesheets instead of one that is
either accepted as is or changed. I know the user can change the css by
the style editor and it will remember your new stylesheet for you. It
is quite nice, but I do not expect to think that aunt Martha will sit
down and change the style sheet too much?
