As a DNN newbie, I'm sure there's an easy way around this, just not sure where to look or start.  Here's the scoop:

I'm managing a couple websites for a group of radio stations in the Florida Keys.  We're working on a "NOW PLAYING" module of our DNN-created sites.  Our automation system at the station automatically sends a small text file [contains artist/title info on what's playing now,] to the root directory of the website. 

I'm presently using the I-Frame module to display the text file.  The info is fine, but I want to be able to configure the text to match the text color and background color of the text in the rest of the modules.  Right now, it's just using a basic text font, and a white background. 

Somehow I need to get this text configured and formatted before it gets displayed on the site.  Any suggestions?  I had downloaded a small flash file from the website for our automation system but it just never worked.  I'm not looking for anything flashy or fancy... just display the text info. 

Thanks...

Andrew

Include and make a call to set the text "properties" to the CSS class in DNN portal skin container you are using.  If you need any further help, please let me know.

I certainly can use more assistance.  I really AM a newbie to DNN, so I have no clue how to "Include and make a call to set text properties to CSS class in DNN portal skin."  You lost me there completely.  I've gotta learn more about DNN, and the best way is to throw yourself in head first.  Anything you can assist with here would be greatly appreciated.  The fifty bonus points have been increased to 100!!
