Coppermine Stylesheet Guide PDF  | Print |
This guide is an outline of the Coppermine Gallery stylesheet. There are a significant number of styles - Some whose function is difficult to figure out. This guide will give you a good idea of what all the styles do.



Things to remember:

- CSS styles work in a hierarchy. A style closer to an element overrides one that is farther away. A good example is the <body> tag that defines all of the text on the pages. If another style is defined within a <p> or <span> tag closer to an element, the body tag's styles will be overridden.

- Styles combine. If you set the size of your text in the <body> tag, it's not necessary to set it again in a <p> (unless you want to change the size, of course). You would simply add additional attributes like color, margins, or padding to your text with a <span> or other tag.

- Some styles in the stylesheet overlap. Two styles can control the same element. Be sure to pick the style closest to the element that you're trying to control unless you want your changes to cover more than one area.

- You can call colors in HTML and in the stylesheet by name or by their hex number. Both can be found here.
