Dynamic Web Template and Linked CSS Style Sheet

E

ExtraPilot

Greetings,

I'm confused about how a linked CSS style sheet works with a Dynamic Web
Template and the pages linked to that template. I've searched Buyens's book,
this group, FrontPage 2003 help, and other resources on the Net without
finding a specific answer to the following situation:

I've created a DWT and linked it to a CSS style sheet. But I can't figure
out how to use those styles in pages "created" by the DWT. Specifically, the
Style command isn't available on the format menu when I try to format text in
an editable region on a page linked to the DWT.

Now, I'm a Word guy who goes back to Word for DOS, so I'm familar with using
Word templates and the styles they contain. But I'm clearly missing something
with the way FrontPage 2003 works. Can someone point me to an explanation?

Thanks,

-ExtraPilot

The styles in the stylesheet referenced by the DWT are all available
in your pages that have the DWT attached.
If the style sheet defines classes, use those classes in your page
content.
If the style sheet defines styles for common HTML tabs (<p>,<td> etc.)
then those styles will be applied to your content.

If you wish to add styles to a particular page, then add an editable
region in the <head> section of the DWT for this purpose:

<head>


<!-- #BeginEditable "Styles" -->
<!-- Add your style sheet here - it can be changed on each page -->
<!-- #EndEditable -->

</head>

Anything placed in this region in the DWT will go into the other
pages, but can be edited in those pages.
