[Zope-CMF] CMFDecor troubles

[Andrew Sawyers]

I found some improper declared styles being used in the DTML (specifically
in the Navbar), thus why it's never looked properly.  It's difficult to read
the default browser colors of the links in the navbar, and the original
design expected them to behave differently.  It's an easy fix that I'll be
putting into CVS today.

That was the general starting point of our discussion on the issue, we both
felt it would be a benefit to support FrontPage but I think it had been
punted on......

Yeah, off the top of my head, I agree.  If one just uses the WYSIWYG editor,
you'd expect things to work fine.  Heh, we all know this is hardly ever the
case.  Someone who has it should try; just so we know.  I'll check around
here and see if I can get a copy.  I'm not sure if people who use that tool
use all the 'extra' features or simply are using it to do basic editing.....
