I am trying use the different styles available with the Interlaced theme and they don't seem to be working properly.

Basically whichever style sheet I use I get the same blue header with a grey menu bar at the top. The only visible difference is that the different pictures display. I do not get the same themes as the ones in the screen shots (for example the one wiht the girl doesn't have an all red header, it's still blue, and the text is still blue instead of red). See the attached screen shot.

I have checked the style sheets and they seem to have the right code so I suspect that the theme module has been hard coded and overrides the stylesheets, but I don't know how to fix this.

I have a work around to this by comment out the lines with other style sheet links in them.

However the menu bar is now oddly placed (see attached screen shot).

Also, in the very least, if this is the suggested way of changing them, the install should say something about comment out the lines in the theme module.

How are you attempting to switch style sheets? This theme does not use Drupal's built-in stylesheet feature. Instead it uses the multiple stylesheet selector built into some browsers. (Mozilla Firefox, for instance)

I see from your screenshots that you are using Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer does not offer a stylesheet selection feature. You will only see the first stylesheet unless you manually select another by editing the theme. This is a limitation of IE.

Okay.

I fixed the menu problem by turning the site name option off, which I wanted to do anyway.

So, perhaps this bug has become a documentation request. Can the instructions for changing and customising the styles include some of this basic information please.

Attached is a draft of the intsall file with the additional instructions for someone who knows better to look at.

Thanks for your comments.

Editing the theme does make it work in IE. Perhaps if it could have a comment that this is needed in order to get it to work in IE? A lot of people do use it ;)

Unfortunately due to Institutional decisions I am stuck with IE, but I really like the Interlaced theme and it's easily modifable for a relative newbie like me. :)
