Apologies for Browser Errors, Signing off for the Weekend
To those that have written me about the blog showing up with a white background on certain browsers and the light grey text being impossible to read:
1) Thanks for the heads-up, I'm only using IE currently.
2) I'm still learning by trial & error how to modify the CSS to get the pages to look like I want, in all browsers so please bear with me.
I'll probably switch to one of the stock CSS templates on Monday, when I resume my posts. Signing off for the weekend -- I hope yours is fun & relaxing.
Saddling up for the ride home. Am I a total dork or what?
P.S. - It hailed in San Jose today, for about 5 minutes, just as I was leaving HQ. Hailstones the size of peas -- one of my colleagues noted that she's been living in SJ for 20 years and had never before seen snow nor hail there.

Hi Bob,
If you modify the CSS with the following data, you'll get your black text, grey link, orange link for the a:hover and light grey when visited:
-------
body
{ font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #000;
font-size: 12px;
}
a { color: #676767; }
a:visited { color: #AFB6BA; }
a:hover { color: #FF8539; }
--------

Hi - yours is probably the most 'personal' blog, but it is great - the photos give a real sense of 'being there'...

Add "Trebuchet, TrebuchetMS,…" to the beginning of that font-family attribute list! It's an easy-on-the-eyes screen-font that many overlook.
Thanks for paying attention, Bob.
Cheers!
Phos....
