Has anyone played with HTA's much ive been told you can use CSS with a HTA but cant seem to find much information on it.

Any pointers?

Thanks

As .hta get rendered by the IE engine then CSS can be used to style elements.

They aren't that popular anymore, afaik.
Used to see them on interactive CD's quite a lot, years ago.

I'm currently developing one at work and yes, you can use CSS with them; in pretty much exactly the same way that you would a regular HTML file (which is all a HTA is, other than the script section of it). If you want, I could put together a quick example for you to look at, though I'm not sure if it would be helpful.

Alrighty, as soon as I'm on a Windows box, I'll get it done and uploaded somewhere for you.

I apologise for the poor quality of this, but I didn't have time to make one for you, so I've just pulled something off my work machine that I was working on. It's very, very basic, but hopefully it at least gives you an idea.

Once again, really sorry, but I'm absolutely swamped at the moment.
