Apologies my point was that I want users to be able to enter a code themselves which would then become permanent.

I imagine you'd have to write some custom code - most likely an Action object I would guess - that gets executed when they submit the form. The Action would have to manually re-write that file with the new color info. One thing that might be helpful is to have a separate XML file with just the color info in it, and just overwrite that. e.g.: <colors> <color value="6699cc"/> </colors> Then your style sheet can reference the contents of this file using the XSL document() function. e.g.: <xsl:variable name="color" select="document('color.xml')/colors/color"/> I use this in my site, although for a different reason. I wanted to have all the colors listed in a separate XML file so that I could easily change any or all of them. HTH.
