FP 2003-can you rename a font in the dropdown window? Also, will CSS work
with frames pages?
 
No you can not rename a font and yes CSS will work with frames.

Thank you for the answers. Is there anything special that I need to be aware
of when applying CSS over existing frame pages?
 
I suppose you'd have to apply the CSS link to the individual pages that are
in the frame set (?).

eg if you had a frameset configuration of Main, Menu and Header then you
would open main.html, menu.html and header.html separately and apply the CSS
link to all three pages...., or at least, if the framese is open, then view
source for each page and apply the css link in each.


Or, is it easier than that and you just apply the link to the "frameset"
file itself?

I am thankful for the suggestion. Is the main reason for using CSS
speed or will it help in rating and search engines? I am desparately
trying to get our site to draw more visitors. Any suggestions there?

I haven't followed this thread, but I would see the main reason for using
CSS is that it makes life easier

It will apply styles to whole pages or to divisions or to individual
elements or to whatever.

And when you change your mind, there is only one place in which to change
the code, not many.

I doubt that it would make any difference to search engines, ratings or
visitors.

But take Andrew's advice. He should know about how to get visitors to a
church site.

Thank you Trevor. I will take your advise and give it a try. Do I
need to delete or change anything existing or do I apply directly
over existing h1, h2, etc?

Difficult to say, as I haven't followed all of the thread. If the existing
CSS is not doing what you want, then just overwrite it.

An alternative is to keep various options to try out - just comment out
the old ones and add new ones. Then you can back track if you need to
e.g.
/* The next 3 lines are comments
h1 { font-size: 150%; }
h1 { font-size: 112.5%; }
h1 { font-size: 100%; }
The next line is the one that applies */
h1 { font-size: 200%; }

Of course, if you didn't comment the first 3 out, it would still be the last
that applies.
That is the cascading part of Cascading Style Sheets
