layout

This might be a stupid question, but there is a layout that I like but the maker is no longer active. I read some place that if you 'View Source' it's supposed to work. But what exactly am I looking for in all of that coding?

	It also depends on whether it's S1 or S2 because S1 could have extra coding that could be harder to discern from the view source, but you're looking for stylesheet, i.e. everything in the <style> tags. There's usually more than one and generally, with layouts, you want the last one. (Reply to this)

In my (outdated) version of Firefox, I can type "/" to get the quick search box to show up at the bottom. If you can't, then go to edit > find or press ctrl+f in the source window that pops up. Search for "/* Cleaned CSS: */".

The section you find should look sort of like this. You want to select everything from the line under it until the line just above <style>. (Example of where to end here)

As far as I know, the only CSS that IJ marks as "Cleaned CSS" in the source is user-supplied, so that should help you avoid copying the wrong section. But that's for S2 styles. I have no idea how to make sure you grab ever part of an S1 style.
