With WebSite Tonight, you can edit template styles and color themes using the Advanced Style Editor. You can do this by editing the CSS, or cascading style sheet, for your WebSite. It is recommended that you have experience editing cascading style sheets before using the Advanced Style Editor. CSS is a language that defines how an HTML file is formatted. This is generally used to determine the appearance of text by specifying elements such as font, font size, and color. With WebSite Tonight, you can edit your template CSS and color scheme CSS.
