CopThis error and success page colour helper!
This page contains samples to identify which colour variables listed in the config file (copitset.pl), are for which objects on each generated page. This should help you more easily decide on a colour scheme that matches your site - IF you want to change them!

standard page... background color, text color, link color, visited link color, active link color.

$celbg1 (main table cell colours)
The table cells that appear white on this page are controlled by this variable. It is suggested that they be the same colour as the page background ("$body" body attribute).

$celbg2 (also used for the table border - This is NOT a "border" attribute!)
is the colour also used to colour the table border displayed on the regenerated form when a syntax error is detected in any of the input.

$celbg4 (regenerated syntax error form only)
is the colour used to colour the table background cells displayed on the regenerated form when a syntax error is detected in any of the input.

$addtxt_wid (NOT a colour value, but please read)
When the "additional message" box is used on any form, THIS VALUE determins the width the box will appear in the regenerated errors form (as above), AND all entered text will be chopped in to lines of that same width for e-mail output - see readme.htm!

The program name and copyright notice is set to a neutral gey so as not to be too intrusive. YOU MUST allow that text to remain AND be at least readable.
