Ok, we are really close…

Please have a look [www.theveteransconnection.org](http://www.theveteransconnection.org)

Here is what is in the FW Page Mark Up - I chose h3 in Pulse so I changed  
it to the following… and I changed to white…

#News h3 { color: #ffffff !important; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif !important; font-size: 18px !important; } #News p { color: #ffffff !important; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif !important; font-size: 12px !important; } #News h3 { color: #ffffff !important; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif !important; font-size: 18px !important; }

I think I figured it out… The color in the code in FW does not seem to  
overide the color in Pulse… It DOES however appear to dictate the font  
choice… or did I miss something?

I also have chosen scroll on the mark up item, but that is not working…  
can I make that box scroll?

Thanks!

DM,

Here’s an alternative, or how I do it.

Create a style in FW for your text, call it maintext or whatever is appropriate.  
Create a style in FW for your headers (tags), H1, H2 and H3. As there are few options to change text style in Redactor you could use H3 as an alternative style (as per my previous post) and leave H1/2 for headers proper. It might not be pc to use H3 in that way but if there’s little alternative.

In FW highlight the div (box) you have placed the Pulse code for your pulse edited content. Ideally you should have that clearly marked rather than the ‘item1,2,3’ that FW creates, etc. The div should be ‘fit box to content’ so it will expand or contract according to the amount of content via Pulse.

In the FW Inspector click on the style inspector, that’s the dot with a T - click on the + for the div that you selected and click on the style for the ‘maintext’ you created and wish to be seen when added by Pulse. If its previously been styled then click the -. Publish site command +P and then upload. Remember to upload the css folder also.

You can overwrite the default (maintext) color in Pulse if required. H tags will be as you set in FW.

Remember also to style your links in FW beforehand. Inspector - item appearance - links. This will effect the headers and ‘maintext’ for that div only.

Caveat; Dave and co are the real experts:-)

Ehm, what about simply use the style names used by Pulse, and delete the standard Pulse stylesheet?

actualy i placed all my new pulse files back to the older files where i was allowed to use plain old editors. this is all to much work and thinking for me. ( sorry!)  
I like it when in my editor i can have a bit of playing, like ck editor has and also my clients like that a bit more.  
this new way is to limited for my taste and to much searching and reading, combined with my lovely Freeway, that is still so nice and crisp.  
Also, Pulse for me is not going up in its updates, but only apears to be ‘cleaner’ in a very clean way.  
☹  
sorry again, only my opinion

Like Freeway also is limited, because a blanc site only has a few styles set (H1,H2,H3,em,p,strong) …
