style_systemHi! I'm hoping someone will have more experience with this than me...I found a great layout on Insanejournal, and I've been trying to apply it to this journal on DW with absolutely no luck. Ironically, I thought the hard part would be finding the source code for IJ's base Generator layout, but that was easy enough - I was able to compile it as an S1 layout thanks to IJ posting the source code.
However, the layout - code here, along with a preview of what it should look like - isn't compatible right off the bat. I have some experience with CSS, but I haven't used Span and Div IDs and Classes in layout CSS before, so I'm not sure how to translate this properly, or if it can be. I've already spoken with the layout's creator, and unfortunately s/he doesn't have any DW experience and doesn't know how to make it work over here.
Does anyone have suggestions? I would be eternally grateful!

Date: 2016-01-19 06:41 pm (UTC)Yeah, the WEBSITE and TALK_LINKS sections shove in a bunch more HTML code (which was pretty common, because free accounts couldn't actually touch the layout source on LJ), and I assume at least some of the CSS in GLOBAL_HEAD applies to that. If the extra code isn't there, the CSS for those elements don't do anything. Glad I could help!
