How to Directly Edit the Default Style Sheet of a Windows SharePoint Services-based
Web Site
The default Cascading Style Sheet (CSS), ows.css, used by Windows SharePoint Services is not
available in the user Web and therefore not editable by
FrontPage 2003. However, you can quickly obtain a copy and
upload to your site. Once there you can edit it
freely and then apply it to your site as an external CSS
using FrontPage.
To make a copy and upload the ows.css so you can then edit it
and apply it to your Windows SharePoint Services-based Web
site, open the Windows SharePoint Services Web site with
FrontPage 2003 and do the following:
- Switch to your Internet browser and browse to- http://<mywebsite>/_layouts/1033/styles/ows.css
- Select Save in the File Download
dialog box and select a location on your local machine
in the Save As dialog.
- Also, in the Save As dialog, rename it to
something like mywebsite_ows.css and then click
Save.
- Using either Windows file explorer or My Computer,
locate the file and drag and drop it into the
Folder List pane of FrontPage 2003. Now, you can
directly edit and use it as an external style sheet
by attaching it to one or more pages in your site.
