Hi Dom, I already had the latest versions of FreBDM1707 & UyCyr installed. I installed KtuVB after reading your reply. Both FreBDM1707 & KtuVB have a CSS. However, module UyCyr version 2.0 lacks any style.css file! What led you to think that it had one? Please would you list the remaining 11 of

Are JSword based front-end apps also capable of using the CSS for modules that have one? Or was this something that is currently supported only by the SWORD based front-ends? Best regards, David On Sun, Apr 13, 2025 at 23:38, Peter von Kaehne <[ref...@gmx.net](mailto:On Sun, Apr 13, 2025 at

Wow! I had no idea we could specify CSS files for modules. Therefore, eBible.org doesn't have any modules that do, YET. On 4/13/25 03:13, David Haslam wrote: Thanks Peter, The issue is that [most of] our module developers still seem blissfully unaware of these possibilities, and thus our modu

Thanks Dom, Is there any detailed information about how to create a CSS file to be used alongside a SWORD module? There's barely a mention of CSS in our developers' wiki !!! Is it any wonder that CSS has not taken off when it's not adequately documented or encouraged as a means to enhance a mo

Hi David, you are out of date here by probably better part of a decade. What actually happens is that most/all rendering has been taken out of the engine and got replaced by CSS. The engine supplies semantically CSS styled XHTML corresponding to the OSIS semantics and supplies a standard CSS style

As we're all aware, the SWORD engine renders in italics text enclosed with a transChange element. Yet not all Bible translations are in a script that supports italics! IIRC, it was once suggested that Chinese modules that use CJK ideograms might possibly be render such text using dotted underli
