Multiple CSS files question

Could someone please explain the difference between the css files that are created when I export my form? I'm looking to customize the forms a bit and notice there is a css file under the Themes folder and below that a Blank folder with another default.css.

Specifically which one should I change or do I need to change both to change font sizes for the entry fields. I'm also trying to change the padding of the form as there is a ton of space on the left that I want to get rid of.

Thanks!

Tracie, Do you use FX for your browser?
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Not sure I understand the question on my browser. I use Microsoft Expressions to maintain my site.

If you FX and add Firebug add-on you can view the css and the html that make up HTML pages. This way you could look at the class that's being applied to the fonts and just add a new css link reference to a new css style sheet that's in a different folder on you server. This way if you republish your form all you have to do is add the css link reference back to the page under the originals and you back up and running.:)

I agree with Eric... Fire Bug and Web Developer Tool Bars are the best addons to use when building sites! They are your friends... I would HIGHLY Suggest that you download Firefox and both of these addons if you are a Web Designer!
