Where to place userChrome.css? (Debian Lenny)


Hi,

Using Epiphany 2.22.3 which came with Debian Lenny (the now stable version). I'm trying to add a userChrome.css file to customize the menu fonts but it seems Epiphany ignores the file. Searching the web it seems the file should be at
/home/mike/.gnome2/epiphany/mozilla/epiphany/chrome
(mike is the user name).
but placing the userChrome.css there made no difference.

This is the userChrome.css I used:
/*
* Edit this file and copy it as userChrome.css into your
* profile-directory/chrome/
*/

/*
* This file can be used to customize the look of Mozilla's user interface
* You should consider using !important on rules which you want to
* override default settings.
*/

/*
* Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning
*/
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* set default namespace to XUL */


/*
* Some possible accessibility enhancements:
*/
/*
* Make all the default font sizes 20 pt:
*
* * {
* font-size: 20pt !important
* }
*/
/*
* Make menu items in particular 15 pt instead of the default size:
*
* menupopup > * {
* font-size: 15pt !important
* }
*/
/*
* Give the Location (URL) Bar a fixed-width font
*
* #urlbar {
* font-family: monospace !important;
* }
*/

/*
* Eliminate the throbber and its annoying movement:
*
* #throbber-box {
* display: none !important;
* }
*/

/*
* For more examples see http://www.mozilla.org/unix/customizing.html
*/

menubar, menubutton, menulist, menu, menuitem {
font-family: helvetica !important;
/* font-style: italic !important; */
/* font-weight: bold !important; */
background-image: url(”background.gif”) !important;
background-color: none !important;
font-size: 20mm !important;
}

Any suggestions?.
Thanks for your help,
Mike.

Look for /home/mike/.mozilla/mike/********.slt/chrome (where *********.slt represents the randomly named folder in .mozilla). Put the userChrome.css in the chrome folder you find there.

Mozilla not installed

Thanks bigrigdriver.

I don't have mozilla (or iceweasel) installed (only epiphany) so the ~/.mozilla directory is empty.

Any suggestions (other than installing mozilla)?.

Cheers,
Mike.
