style.css, but honestly it would be way easier to just grab a new theme! But if you insist, a little googling always helps...

edit: ok so you asked "what part of the... style sheet" is responsible for text formatting and I said style.css so that's all pretty obvious, but if you don't know how to find what parts of the css to edit then you really should just use a different theme.

use chrome and 'inspect element'

The old theme will not have a reset.css plugged into it...

In your header.php file, place this line beneath your current stylesheet links and obviously above </html>.

Code:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="[YOURDOMAIN]/reset.css" />

then create a text file and dump this inside it...

Code:

html, body, div, span, applet, object, iframe,
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, blockquote, pre,
a, abbr, acronym, address, big, cite, code,
del, dfn, em, img, ins, kbd, q, s, samp,
small, strike, strong, sub, sup, tt, var,
b, u, i, center,
dl, dt, dd, ol, ul, li,
fieldset, form, label, legend,
table, caption, tbody, tfoot, thead, tr, th, td,
article, aside, canvas, details, embed, 
figure, figcaption, footer, header, hgroup, 
menu, nav, output, ruby, section, summary,
time, mark, audio, video {
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
	border: 0;
	font-size: 100%;
	font: inherit;
	vertical-align: baseline;
}
article, aside, details, figcaption, figure, 
footer, header, hgroup, menu, nav, section {
	display: block;
}
body {
	line-height: 1;
}
ol, ul {
	list-style: none;
}
blockquote, q {
	quotes: none;
}
blockquote:before, blockquote:after,
q:before, q:after {
	content: '';
	content: none;
}

Save it as reset.css and upload it to wherever you linked it to.

See if it works now, if not...then make sure you have written the stylesheet link properly.

Otherwise, ICQ me.

This sounds promising. I'll give it a try...

While everyone is being helpful with wordpress issues.....

I am trying to place a banner add to the right of my wordpress setup but outside of the blog and sidebar.

So I am in the index.php of the template and its got idk maybe 10 lines of code. I want this:

Top Banner
Blog - Right Banner
Bottom Banner

All outside of the blog/wordpress

I have the top and bottom working fine however the right banner will not stay equal to the blog. I have used tables, divs, absolute positioning and I cant get it to work properly.

Any ideas?

Equal to the blog ?

Im guessing you havnt placed it within the container div.

Might be called wrapper rather than container.

It looks like (from talking to Mrwww) what I have is a theme dropped onto old Kubrick code. It probably worked fine with older versions of WordPress, but not with 3.0+ because of all the deprecated functions it's now calling to. That might be the reason behind the complete thrashing it's giving my text formatting.

I'm not sure if it can be patched up (using updated calls), or if I'd have to extract the design, and attempt to rebuild it entirely on top of new updated code. Hmmm..

Get a bottle of wine and sit down for some good reading.
