I can't change the look — SUZANNE, Sat Nov 11 21:01

Hi I can't change the look of the NewsApp. At all. I try to select a new template-- nothing changes. I try adding a new style sheet. Nothing. My id is: 8934 Thanks.

      Can you tell me which browser you're using? Also, are you accessing your maintenance page through the Control Center or are you accessing it directly with a URL?

        I'm using IE 6 and I'm accessing the maintenance page directly through a bookmark.

        The "graph" template seems to work okay, not the gray-- I'll have to get back to you...I'm in the middle of something.
        but... — SUZANNE, Sun Nov 12 11:00
        
        My external style sheet does not work. Could be my end, I've never done this before.

        The templates work, but I can't get my external style sheet to work.
        What is the URL for your style sheet? (nm) — Sean Brunnock, Mon Nov 13 04:18

        It appears to be the wrong URL. I got a 404 error.

        Still can't use personal style sheet — SUZANNE, Tue Nov 14 08:28
        
        and my password is exposed on the screen. I'm not really keen about that!

        I changed the style sheet to the URL that you gave and the changes took. It's not working for you?
        It works now! But some suggestions — SUZANNE, Tue Nov 14 12:35
        
        It works great. Suggestions... Right now I am shortening the entries by sizing the boxes. I really wish there could be a "summary" function for the newsfeeds. And could the search box go at the... more

        The "summary" field is unique to atom feeds. I've been experimenting with that feature. You could use the style sheet to position the search box elsewhere on your page. You can put an image in the... more
        Another bug — SUZANNE, Wed Nov 15 04:34
        
        I created a "summary" simply by sizing the boxes and hiding the overflow-- crude, but it works. I removed a .gif from the prologue using the "submit changes" button, and because the style sheet text... more
        Fixed the style sheet bug. Sorry about that. (nm) — Sean Brunnock, Wed Nov 15 05:34
