Hey Dennis,

No problem. I find it a little annoying that it takes so long.
But I suspect it may be Mandrakesoft's "answer" to duplicate
posts. They'll get it right eventually.

That's how you learn. Break it. Fix it. Break it again. You
realise what you'd done wrong & stop doing it;-).

Easy to fix. I'm light sensitive & need dark or black
backgrounds & bright fonts. Netscape is motiff-based (I know
little about motiff, but any motiff app's appearance can easily
be altered), so all you need is the right wording set in your
.Xdefaults.
Here're the pertinent settings (I think these are the ones
-- I too have fooled with lots of Netscape settings right down
to Netscape's global settings files) for Netscape's backgrounds:
~/.Xdefaults
!# General FG/BG for menus and borders
Netscape*background: #000000
Netscape*foreground: #0000ff
In this example, I've an html code for a black backtground &
bright blue fonts for the foreground. You can use any html code
here. If you don't know the codes off the top of your head, just
do a search for html color on the Web -- there a bags of pages.
Lemme know if you'd like more.
Meph
