Hi All,

I was playing around with the HTML windows to make a 'General Info' window to my own taste, but I am stuck at mimicking the house style concerning the following details:

1) How do I get _exactly_ the same font as the Invelow-supplied windows?

2) How do I get rid of the sunken border? I always end up with a border like the original 'Overview', but I want no border like the original 'General Info'.

3) Is there a way to refer the background to the active DVD Profiles Theme, so when the Theme changes the HTML window changes along?

The small font is 11px Tahoma, the larger one is 13px Tahoma. The General Info window uses the small font with a slightly larger line spacing, so the exact style attribute would be  font: 11px/1.5em Tahoma;

You have to explicitly disable the border on the BODY tag by specifiying the style attribute border-style: none;

Not directly from an HTML section, but a plugin can access these values.

Goodguy:

Thanks a lot, for the first two items that was 100% spot-on what I needed.

As I understand it the plug-in devkit is not public so the third will remain on the wishlist. I expected as much, I'll just hack together a graphic background which looks identical. No changing on the fly then, but that is only a theoretical disadvantage: I'll probably stick to one style anyway.

It's semi-public... If you are a programmer you can apply for access to the Plugin Development section of the forum here.
