Ok, just to give some understanding, I block all scripts on all web sites. This prevents pop-ups and other annoying junk that comes about while surfing. Whenever I need to allow the script in order to interact with the site, I can do that. I have to allow 4 sites permission to use scripts in order to use the special tags in my posts...
Ok, now I will show you how funny this looks to me.

you wouldn't place blue on yellow on your website

it's not easy to read large blue text on a grey/black background.
Ok, look at all of that. Someone says that blue is bright. Anyone that knows about accessibilty knows that bright fonts are what is wanted on a dark background and dark fonts are what is wanted on a light background. On my site, I use a dark blue on a light yellow background. Aside from perhaps color preferences, it was done correctly on my site. Besides, a few changes in the CSS could change every page instantly. I choose to use Blue and Gold for more than 1 reason. Back to this site, if blue is bright and obviously black and grey is dark, then that is correct, is it not???
Now I'll address some of the other issues that were mentioned.
\"Wow, Protection from SQL injection. Basic PHP Sql injection prevention can be done in 4 lines.. \"
It takes at least one line for the loop. It takes at least 1 line to grab the variable you are going to process. This is where you made your mistake. There are AT LEAST 4 characters that you want to process, so that's at the very least 1 line for comparison. You will also need at least 1 line to start a loop so that you can go through each character in the variable you are processing. You will need at least one other variable to at least temporarily hold the new string in, so there's another line. You will need to change the old value to a new value when you run into characters that aren't allowed, so there's another line... I suggest that you recount. Don't forget to count up the connection string variable and the select statements, as well as all of the other things needed when adding a post to the database.

Second of all, my color preferences SHOULD NOT affect any other visitor.

Well they do. Just as they would to anyone else with relatively normal eyes, it's not easy to read large blue text on a grey/black background.
If my color preferences were only shown on the pages that I VIEW, then they would not be bothering anyone else. Not only did I explain this, but I told you how that it could be done as well...

They feel as if we had ftp, database, etc. access it would be a security risk(which I should mention, it is).
If you were using your own server, you would have access to all of that and it wouldn't be a security risk unless you didn't know what you were doing.
Actually, you said the you want light colors on dark websites, correct Blue? Your blue is not LIGHT blue. It is DARK BLUE. This is like placing LIGHT blue on a LIGHT skin.
So, you made a valid point, yet your example was the exact opposite.
And we really don't care to have a user have their own color preference. It finally turns to be more of a hassle than a helping feature.

We use CSS also, as well as every other IF forum. This CSS style sheet is way more complex than anything that you could code for your filthy little website.
And if I was KoolDrew, I would've suspended you along time ago. :angry:
