A stylesheet for the Emacs Org Mode HTML export

org-style.css

/**
 * This stylesheet will work pretty well with a regular Org Mode HTML export.
 * However, you do have to turn off all of the defaults:
 *
 * (setq org-export-html-style-include-scripts nil
 *       org-export-html-style-include-default nil)
 *
 * and insert a call to the stylesheet:
 *
 * (setq org-export-html-style
 *       "<link rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text/css\" href=\"org-style.css\" />")

I preferred not to embed it, but you could escape all of the quotes and put it in a string within a <style> tag and set the org-export-html-style variable to it. It may be out of date now as it was written a long time ago and I don't know if the markup has changed.

Thanks for your quick reply, I really want embed it and I can send the generated html file to other and they cay see nice format, actually the default css is nice to me but I just want change code's background colour. I still don't know where <style> tag added to, I am a newbie of emacs, can you give me a little example? I already have a nice css file, you just tell me where to put it to will make it embed, thanks Best Regards

Somewhere in your Emacs init file (probably .emacs in your home directory) you need to add the following code:

(setq org-export-html-style "<style>
pre.src { background-color: #ccc; }
</style>")

Where your full CSS is within the style tags. You will have to replace any quotes '"' with '"' so that they don't close the string.

The next time you export to HTML the CSS should be embedded.

The documentation of the classes in the HTML and ways to add the CSS is in the documentation here: http://orgmode.org/manual/CSS-support.html#CSS-support

If you've still having problems could you post your CSS in a Gist and I will give you the code that you need to add to your Emacs init file to make it work.

Thanks for your help, finally I make it work

Hi,
I know how to export org-mode files to HTML using custom CSS. However, I do not know how to apply each style or class in my CSS to paragraphs or headings in the org-mode file. In HTML, I can specify the style to be used for a particular paragraph or image. How do I do it in org-mode? Emacs seems to decide for itself which style should be applied. My level 1 headings gets exported as level 2 headings, for instance.

My search for an answer led me to this page. I suppose you can help me. Thanks, @mowen in advance.
