Style Sheets

The overall look of a project web site can be controlled by Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). The project administrator can select the CSS file which is used to format each web page by a setting like

define("STYLESHEET", "white.inc");

in the file html/project/project.inc.

Three style themes are currently available: white.css, black.css, and style2.css. It is easy to create your own by copying one of these three and editing.

You may also find it useful to use the CSS @import command, though this is not supported correctly by all browsers (elaborate?) [jbk: Don't use it, it's better to override the page_head function and add it there or even better to wait for #672 to be done]

Style Classes

The list below will describe classes used in BOINC Project pages, to make it easier for a project to make custom adjustments.
