I want the text background to be black, and the text white or yellow, Should this work? (The text yellow part isn't in this code yet, I'll put that in):
Login()
< html >
< body bgcolor="red" >
Welcome to the Outlaw Star RPG!
< /body >
< /html >

I want this to show up, starting when they log in, but the error I get is:
Mobs.dm:2:error: missing left-hand argument to <.
That line is the first < html > any idea's? (Spaces put in between the < >'s and the letters so this post would let me put it in, usually, there is no spaces in there)Thanks

You have to use a .dms file. That's a good thing to add to the FAQ; I'll send to Ron right away.

Read the following documentation sections:

1
2
3

Basically, you put the following in a new .dms file:

<style>
BODY {background: #000000; font-color: #00FFFF}
</style>

which would show a black background, yellow text.

On a question related to CSS in BYOND's context: How are default fonts specified in BYOND? Does it use your IE browser's settings? Or does it have its own settings hidden away somewhere?

The default fonts and colors for the main text panel are set in the Preferences/Appearance menu on DS. The browser just uses IE defaults.

It's in Dream Seeker's preferences (Options|Preferences, then the Appearance tab).

Read the included documentation with each program! There's always information about each in Help|General.
