Hi, I'm relatively new to ASP but made an hand writed CSS conversion for the 3.1SR4 version and currently use this function to convert absolute (snitz) to relative (CSS) font sizes:
function CSS_Size(abssize)
select case abssize
case 1
CSS_Size = "xx-small"
case 2
CSS_Size = "x-small"
case 3
CSS_Size = "small"
case 4
CSS_Size = "medium"
case 5
CSS_Size = "large"
case 6
CSS_Size = "x-large"
case 7
CSS_Size = "xx-large"
end select
end function
This is the way I use it in my style.asp:
FONT.NRM
{
font-family :<% =strDefaultFontFace %>;
font-size :<% =CSS_Size(strDefaultFontSize) %>;
color :<% =strDefaultFontColor %>;
}
Hope to be useful

case 5

case 6
CSS_Size = "x-large"
case 7
CSS_Size = "xx-large"
end select
end function
this function would be called many times.
why not just:
<%
HEADER_SIZE = CSS_Size(strHeadFontSize)
DEFAULT_SIZE = CSS_Size(strDefaultFontSize)
FOOTER_SIZE = CSS_Size(strFooterFontSize)
%>
or whatever and reference HEADER_SIZE, DEFAULT_SIZE, and FOOTER_SIZE
<edit>changed [font=Courier New] to [code] in previous post</edit>

I made a CSS version of Snitz version 3.3.03 available. See the first post for link. 
Most of the readme can be ignored in the zip because I made the post_conversion changes, except for these items:
Problem Files - fonts (search for "<font")
-------------------------------------------------
active.asp (lines 374,427,474)
admin_config_order.asp (lines 123,126,131,169,193,208,235)
inc_jump_to.asp (line 40)
subscription_list.asp (lines 89,92,95)
Problem Files - bgcolor (search for "bgcolor")
-------------------------------------------------
active.asp (lines 371,380,389)
admin_config.asp (lines 167,173,206,212,233,239)
search.asp (lines 250,257,264,270)

I think this mod is very good and useful but, unfortunately, I wish it was all ASP instead of having to download a program for the server which I am not permitted to do.
Will this mod be written in ASP someday?

Oh, it's not something that runs on your server. The script is used for a one-time conversion (on your desktop or development machine) of all your Snitz code and then you upload the new/converted files to your server. The end result is still ASP. I just use Perl to parse through all the files to replace font tags with style tags.
Also, in case you don't have Perl or don't know how to use it, there's a copy of the latest version of Snitz already converted and ready to go.

Mine doesn't work. I have found a few coding errors that make it not work....for instance, the includes file config.asp is called in your css file. When you try and open the default.asp page in the browser you will obviously get an error because the includes file is called twice and variables are getting redefined. Even after removing this, it still didn't work. So, I changed it so that the css file is just a regular includes file and writes the style sheet code directly to the page using the <style></style> tags. Although this is not my preferred method for doing this, it works for now. Anyone else have this problem, or am I just missing something?

since the downloads from the first post don't work, I email'ed another poster from this forumn and got the converted bits (thank you).
i've made some changes to the background.. etc and my question is how can I use other mods with the CSS mod, for example the image in cells mod. I looked at the code for the image mod and was unable to find the same code reference.
Does this make any sense?

i don't entirely understand you but...
if you're referring to the "use background images instead of background colors" MOD, make these changes:
look for this line (around line 37 in my version):
response.write ("/* Forum Style Properties - Table/Page Backgrounds */" & vbCrLf &_
then, for the cells you wish to change to the image, change
background-color: " & strCategoryCellColor & ";}" & vbCrLf &_
(the red code varies)
change that to:
background: url(""" & strCellImage & """);}" & vbCrLf &_
where the green code is the name of the variable containing the background image.
tell me if you don't understand.
