So I finally finished messing with the stylesheet and got it working again. It only took half an hour of looking confused and wondering what on earth was going on before realising I was using a stylesheet from two versions ago as my template and that was the reason nothing was working properly. Ho hum.
What I don’t understand is why it’s so difficult to alter some of these things - it’s all very well keeping all your information in a CSS file which is referenced by hundreds of other pages, but why does the whole thing have to be so obtuse to understand? Part of the problem is working with other people’s uncommented code - I was looking for the section that stops image links from having a border around them, and it took me three passes of the entire file before I found it, and then two goes at editing it before I reached the desired result…
I get the feeling that a ‘real’ language would give me a heart attack.
