I believe that we are not using FireHose but it was needed to make the site work. As can be seen in the db dump above, it adds the firehose.css file to any of the user pages. Need to verify and then see if we can get the db purged of these values.
Good work. The question in my mind is why the heck css for one module has any effect *at all* on any other module. Talk about lack of localization...-AG
I think there was some firehose slashboxes that showed up in the users pages. They needed to be wider than the default, so they patched those pages with the firehose.css. Next step is to get a current dump of the two css tables. The important part is I know what files are for what parts of the code. Slashcode.css is the theme css file slashcode-lite.css is the style file that is called by a user pref. This means I need to fix comments.css to remove the theme elements I inserted and put them in the theme file. I still need to make sure that the changes that benefited the Simplified theme stay intact. -EP
fonts
This is what I usually start with: font-family: Helvetica,Geneva,Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; Too many can lead to a LOT of testing being required. As can the wrong order. ;-) Others I have used in the past: font-family: Geneva,Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,Chicago,sans-serif; font-family: Helvetica,Arial,Geneva,Chicago,Verdana,sans-serif; font-family: Helvetica,Geneva,Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; -AG I have used: font-family: Verdana, Geneva, "Bitstream Vera Sans", "DejaVu Sans", sans-serif; Note this has Linux fonts as well to help with these users. -EP

This code sets up the upper menu on http://slashcott.org/users.pl which is linked from your userid on the home page. The Preferences is wrong, as it needs to be all three links: Info, Homepage, Comments. This will allow users with low-bandwidth option set to easily get to the setting to unset low-bandwidth. -EP
