Custom style sheet	Reply to this Post Reply with Quote
	[Delete this Thread]

Here's one that's way out there...allow calendar owners to reference a custom style sheet. They don't need to be uploaded, only referenced (stylesheets can be located in a different domain from the doc that references them.) Maybe we type in the URL to the style sheet in a field in the options area. Those of us who know CSS will figure out what classes/IDs to use by looking at the generated html of the calendar.

This has the potential to give cal owners total control over the look & feel, with very little effort for you.

A custom stylesheet would be referenced in addition to your usual ones, but after them in the doc, so that in the event the owner stylesheet is not available for any reason, the calendar will still render with the default look/feel of your site.

It's not that far out there. In fact, it is a goal of ours.
We've already written the forums to support this. Uploading a custom style sheet is currently undergoing final testing and should be released soon.

The calendars are a tougher issue. Since CSS was written into the forums "from scratch", supporting it was easy.

Since the calendars were initially written w/o support for custom CSS, adding this support is a bit harder. Especially since members have already been using our Color Prefs editor to change their calendars. Our challenge is to support CSS going forwards, yet also support the "legacy" customizations that have been done by our members.
