In reply to: WordPress domain hostingWill wordpress map his domain to his blog? Where does he apply? How much is the charge?
No.
I’ve seen some FAQs related to this. Am I confused? Are those things about people with a wordpress installation mapping their domain to their blog OR people who have a wordpress blog from the wordpress service and the service does not offer that?
If the wordpress blog service doesn’t offer domain mapping is there a blog service that does? If not what is a good host for getting server space, domain hosting and offers wordpress blogs?
Thanks

In reply to: font size, IE, FirefoxI had the minimum font size cranked up in my firefox at home ( the browser I develop on ). I’ll check at work to see what fonts my IE and FF have.
I noticed in FF it has an option to let the site do what it wants in terms of colors. Is there a similar option for letting the site do what it wants in terms of font size?
What would be a good default font size to make the best of it for IE and FF users alike?

In reply to: CSS changes not updatingOkay, I think I found the issue. I saved my blog page (view source ) and found that the developer hardcoded images to substitute for colors in the default theme( he made some comments in the code to identify it as such )
I deleted the image path and got the color I wanted in the view-source copy of the page I downloaded.
The trouble is, I can’t find that same code in theme editor sections in word press

which is updating the file ( I checked the file directly )– I am using wp 2.02, I am not trying to change the header, I am
trying to change the background color in the default theme in
the area around the blog from gray to black.– the url for my site is http://www.beforewisdom.com/blog/

In reply to: CSS changes not updatingI checked the file directly. It did update but I do not see the changes on the blog. Here is what the section of code I altered looks like.
This is from the style.css in the default wordpress theme. I changed the background color ( or tried to ) for the body from gray to black:
/* Begin Typography & Colors */
body {
font-size: 62.5%; /* Resets 1em to 10px */
font-family: ‘Lucida Grande’, Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
background-color: black;
color: #333;
text-align: center;

In reply to: CSS changes not updatingOkay I tried ctrl f5 in wordpress, still no dice. Could the files be read only and will wordpress tell me if that is the case?
I changed to the body color to bgcolor to black in the default theme, that should have been very visible.

In reply to: CSS changes not updatingWhat is control f5 supposed to do?
– refresh my browser?
– a wordpress command that truly updates my blog?I ask because I want to know what app I am supposed to be in when I do this. Thanks.
I checked my code, there are only so many ways mess up “white;” 🙂
