I recently finished building a DNN-based website (hosted by PowerDNN) and have since gone live with it. The site isn't technically complete however as I still need to change some of the original skin's HTML text styles to colors that match the other changes I made -- specficially the Login/Register links, the Menu tabs and some of the container header text colors. This would normally be fixed in the stylesheet editor, but I noticed that there isn't nearly as much code in there as there should be, including the specific styles I need to modify.

Firebug is great in that it teases you with the possibility of changing them out, but naturally you can't "save" any of your changes there.

So my question is, how do I access the actual CSS (HTML?) of the site so I can find the specific styles, change out the hexdecimal web codes I need, and be done with it?

DotNetNuke uses a series of stylesheets that are pulled in in cascading order:
Default.css – The overall style for all portals - common items are often stored here
Portal.css – Which is maintained in “Site Settings” for your portal
Skin.css – Which is maintained as part of your portal skin

and module.css -there is one of these for each module, allowing for module specific styling.

As to the login/register - that's a skin object (see the skinning documentation for more - http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Support/Doc...). To do this, set a cssclass on the skinobject and then add it into the default.css - http://www.thinkofdesign.com/resource... is very handy for generating the correct definition.Alternatively you can set it by going to admin->skins and scrolling down to the skin designer area.

There is only one CSS file you can edit from the admin interface: portal.css, the rest you have to download, edit and upload again.
(using FTP, or a skin install package through the admin interface)
