ImageThe following is a quick reference to most of the CSS classes that I have found used in the template_css.css file.  Some of these are common to all CSS files, some are specific to Mambo, and some have slightly different names depending on the template. Depending on your application, your template may or may not use all of these classes.  Any additions or corrections to this information should be sent to us using the contact form.

Overall (default / catch-all) settings:

  • body - Style for the body tag of your website.  Controls items such as the page background, etc.

  • div - Default format for all DIV (division) items in your template.  This is a catch-all that only applies when no other style has been defined for an item.
