<h1>About the Documents Module</h1>
<p>The Documents Module produces a list of documents with links to view or 
  download the document (depending on the user's browser settings). Documents can 
  be located within the portal, or can be a link to another website or portal.
</p>
<p>
  The document title, category, description, document owner, name of the user who 
  created the document, the user who last updated the document, creation date, 
  the date that the document was added or last updated, and the file size 
  (internal documents only) are available for each listing. Link click tracking 
  and logging are also available.
</p>
<p>
  In the module settings page, you can configure the columns that are displayed, 
  the column order&nbsp;and the sort order of the documents listed. The documents 
  module supports the DotNetNuke core "secure storage" feature, so that documents 
  stored securely are not available to unauthorized users.

<h1>CSS Styling for the Documents Module</h1>
<P>The documents module renders an "outside" DIV tag with a CLASS attribute of 
  "DNN_Documents". Each header cell has a CLASS attribute of [Name]Header, where 
  [Name] is the column name - for example "TitleHeader", "SizeHeader", 
  "CategoryHeader". Each data cell has a CLASS attribute of [Name]Item, for 
  example "TitleItem", "SizeItem", "CategoryItem".</P>
<P>This allows skin developers to control the CSS style of individual columns. 
  For example, use the following CSS to render the size column in red and set the 
  column width to 50 pixels:</P>
<P><FONT face="Courier New" size="2">&nbsp; .DNN_Documents .SizeItem {color: red; 
    width: 50px} </FONT>
</P>
