NAME
Apache::Wyrd::CSSGene - Example Wyrd for breeding CSS stylesheets
SYNOPSIS
<BASENAME::CSSGene>
<BASENAME::Template>
<style type="text/css">
TD.developing {
font-size: #10-32#px;
background-color: #@000000,00AAFF,FFFFFF@;
margin: *
}
</style>
</BASENAME::Template>
</BASENAME::CSSGene>DESCRIPTION
This Wyrd is provided as an example. Given a Wyrd::Template stylesheet named 'stylesheet', it will use a genetic algorithm to aid in the fine-tuning of a web page CSS. Within this stylesheet template, it will replace any sequence of #number-number# with values between those number ranges, or any * with a number within the default ranges, or any @value,value,value@ with one of the indicated values.
This will allow a stylesheet to be "bred" out of many elements within acceptable parameters until the desired look is achieved. It will do so by providing an interface that allows the "more fit" style to be selected and for bad stock to be culled.
