hi javadocs;
how do i specify the background color for both lefthand frames ('all-classes' and 'overview')? i've tried to find the right setting using css but i can't... i've searched through the forums and the docs...
also, is there more of a reference online for javadoc stylesheet usage/coding, or is the stylesheet itself pretty much the guide?
many thanks in advance;

Does this line affect only the main page and not the lefthand frames:
/* Page background color */
body { background-color: #FFFFFF }
If so, then we would need to add a feature to set that background color. I don't know offhand how to do it.
In that case, please submit a bug using:

Or if you're too busy, let me know and I'll submit it.
The comments in stylesheet.css are the only description of this file. You can find further details at:

all the files use the same '.css' file. There isn't a way in css to change the color for just the left hand pages. You would need to alter the javadocs so that all left hand pages used one css and all right hand pages used a different css. It is probably easier to just alter the files after they are created. Since they don't change with every code change, you can copy them back in when you regenerate and will only need to redo the changes when new packages/classes are added.
Also, there are entire books available on CSS. It isn't anything specific to the javadoc. You can change most anything through changing that one css file. I recommend getting 'CSS:The Definitive Guide' by O'Reilly, and the pocket CSS companion. The pocket companion itself won't do you much good without the 'Definitive Guide' book to explain what the keywords mean.
