How to change layout on Reply

[brokopovich]

Hi

I was just wandering how to change the look of the 'reply' frontend section, so it is clear to the viewer that there is a difference between 'comments' and 'replies'.

It does not have to be a huge change. Just something like another background color inside the box of reply or another font color - anything.

Thank you.

In my mind you can do this via CSS because all replies are nested elements of comment's block. I can suggest you to use FireBug plugin for Firefox browser to get information about used styles. Also it allows to easy change styles 'on the fly'.

Thank you for your reply.

I installed firebug and went through all the styles in there, and found that it is mostly controlled by the css called 'style.css.'

However - it is impossible for me to locate the 'reply' comment box. Every change i make on the different comment box styles there is to be found in this huge document, will change all comment boxes globally.

I can see in the frontend, that there is SOME difference, since the reply will have a left margin of 20 px. But i have not bin able to locate that margin to only the 'reply.'

To explain myself better i have made a screenshot:


Can you please help me locate the 'reply' comment boxes and the editing possibilities for that and not the overall global comment boxes?
