Request News presentation

Worker Joined: Sep 09, 2004 Posts: 106 Location: Canada

Hi, I was wondering how could I only change the background and text font style of the news presentation mod. I have been at it for days first in 7.4 and now in 7.5 so I have decided to come up here for help. I am able to change borders and colors around the output but not the main area where the news item appears. I don't want to change the theme just the news mods.

Thanks for any help

Hello

I don't now what theme you have?

But in your theme.php "function themeindex"
that should be the place to make changes.

Example:

Code:

echo "<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\" width=\"100%\"><tr><td>\n"


        ."<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#D6D6D6\" width=\"100%\"><tr><td>\n"


        ."<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"3\" cellspacing=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#D6D6D6\" width=\"100%\"><tr><td align=\"left\">\n"


        ."<font class=content1><b>$title</b></font>\n"


        ."</td></tr></table></td></tr></table>\n"


        ."<b><a href=\"modules.php?name=News&amp;new_topic=$topic\"><img src=\"$t_image\" border=\"0\" Alt=\"$topictext\" align=\"right\" hspace=\"10\" vspace=\"10\"></a></B></font>\n";


    FormatStory($thetext, $notes, $aid, $informant);


    echo "</td></tr></table><br>\n"


        ."<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#D6D6D6\" width=\"100%\"><tr><td>\n"


        ."<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"3\" cellspacing=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFF0\" width=\"100%\"><tr><td align=\"center\">\n"


        .""._POSTEDBY." ";

The first one changes the background for the news:

Code:

echo "<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\" width=\"100%\"><tr><td>\n"

Hope this helps You.
