#53 CSS based themes
Here's a couple of themes that I've been working on.
They work best in MSIE5+, look OK in Mozilla and are
readable in Netscape 4.7.
Features:
* A table is used for the basic page layout (head, foot
+ columns. Everything else is done with divs.
* ids are unique (as required by DOM) and divide the
page into zones for styling
* all cless names start with 'psl-' to avoid namespace
clashes
* combining id and classes allows the appearance of
blocks and other elements to change depending on where
they are in the page, without needing new templates
* To try to protect Netscape 4 from itself (eg borders
on form elements), two stylesheets are used, so
slashHead.tpl needs changed to include:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="{ROOTDIR}/styles/{SKIN}.css" />
<style type="text/css" media="screen">@import
"{ROOTDIR}/styles/{SKIN}_ext.css";</style>
You can see the skins in use in
http://www.cruickshank.biz/sl. (servicelink)
and http://www.cruickshank.biz/sl (home)
I dont consider them production-ready, but it shouldnt
take much work to get them there. The other caveat is
that I developed them under pSL M7 have not tested them
with the PSL 0.7 RCs

I'm uploading my work to update these skins to 0.7. It is
incomplete and may contain errors too. But it's a start.

Cool.
I've also been working on a 0.7 themed site
When I get time, I'll merge your work into mine, or at least
upload a version of that skin too (it's based on 'home').
Glad you thought it useful!
