Having issues adding inline CSS to your source code?

Well I have! I have reported to no avail that Fronter in some instances will not accepet any inline CSS.

If you paste some rather simple inline CSS on your source code page, say for example:
<style type="text/css">
hr {color:sienna;}
p {margin-left:20px;}
body {background-image:url("images/back40.gif");}
</style>

What Fronter will usually do, is wrap the code around a paragraph tag, thus rendering the style useless.
<p><style type="text/css">
hr {color:sienna;}
p {margin-left:20px;}
body {background-image:url("images/back40.gif");}
</style></p>


I have reported this situation to Fronter UK, but it has been over 1 month now with no answer what so ever.

Has anyone had any success in getting this sorted?

Kindest regards,
Paul

It would be great if there where a better css support in the editor, especially as html5 is moving the text formatting to css, as far as I can understand but I'm no html expert.

The problem here is that the tool fronter use for text formatting is a third party product ckeditor.com/. Due to this, I guess Fronter have little possibility to change the functionallity.

There are some limitations indeed, though we are looking into updating the editor to some extent.

Another way could be to enable custom css in rooms (your local service team can do that for your Fronter installation), whereby you can use a room specific css that will effect how the pages look like (i.e. in the page tool).

Tapio: it's great to enable custom CSS in a room - but when you copy a room, css doesn't copy with it...

I just had a chat to support it would appear that customised CSS for rooms are no longer possible in Y11.

<p><style type="text/css">
hr {color:sienna;}
p {margin-left:20px;}
body {background-image:url("images/back40.gif");}
</style></p>

have you tried:
<p style="margin-left:20px">

<hr style="color:sienna">
