On a day like this I know why our dear CMS carries the slogan 'Power In Simplicity'. I'm creating my first Moodle template. And it is a rather complicated task. Allthough the HTML of the template is easy enough, there is a tremendous amount of CSS classes*. Each module has it's own set of classes, distributed between three stylesheets: lay-out, colors and one for the fonts. Oh, there is a fourth for mozilla browsers.
And because Internet Explorer doesn't understand the idea of the C in CSS very well, I'll have to use all kinds of tricks in these 3000+ lines of CSS.
Today I appreciate the OSM/mambo modules and their suffixes even more
.
* and the html where these classes are defined is generated by the system, only few are in the template html files.
