The Beez template comes with the default installation. Don't be fooled by its outer appearance. It is powerful, accessible, and a great starting point for building your own CSS-driven template.

Some things to know about Beez:

  • It's located in /SITE/templates/beez directory
  • Pay special attention to the /html subdirectory, and its subdirectories. These contain theme overrides that have been specially designed to make heavy use of CSS formatting (instead of formatting with tables.)
  • For instance, one can format articles by editing this file:
    /SITE/templates/beez/html/com_content/article/default.php
  • Accessibility matters. Handicapped people use special devices other than mouse and keyboard to navigate a page; blind people use screen readers to read web pages aloud. Consider that Google and other search routines are also "blind": They can read the content of text, not pictures.
  • Note that there are a number of stylesheets being used by Beez. You may have to edit your IE-only stylesheet to enable your site to work with both Internet Explorer® and Firefox.

Here are the stylesheets found by default in the SITE/beez/css directory:
