 * My blog’s address is [http://www.LittleIndianConstruction.com](http://www.LittleIndianConstruction.com).
 * I want to have a section in my sidebar where I will display dynamic data from
   another website ([http://www.bcwid.org/mobile/](http://www.bcwid.org/mobile/)).
   The data is the water level of a Texas Lake.
 * I have used an iFrame to successfully display the information, but it looks terrible.
   Is it possible to re-format the fonts contained in the iFrame? Or is there better
   way to pull the information.

 * It should be possible to style the iframe’s contents using CSS such as `iframe
   p` etc.

 * Thanks for your suggestion! I’ve spent the last hour searching google for information
   on “iframe p” but haven’t found anything. My CSS skills are poor to non-existent.
   My ignorance appalls me. Can you send me to a good tutorial or help explain what
   I need to do so even a dummy like me can understand?

 * It’s just simple basic CSS. If you don’t know much about CSS a good place to 
   start is:
 * [CSS Tutorials](http://www.w3schools.com/css/)
    [Learning CSS](http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/learning)

 * I’ve spent the last several hours reading through both of the tutorials trying
   to find the answer. My ignorance is keeping me from even finding the correct 
   topic, much less being able to figure out how to resolve the problem. Sorry that
   I’m such a dumbass.

 * Try adding:
 *     ```
       .sidebar .textwidget iframe p {
       	color:#333;
       	font-size:11px;
       }
       ```
   
 * to the bottom of your stylesheet.

 * I’ve added the css to the stylesheet but it doesn’t seem to have changed anything.
   I’ve tried changing the setting for “font-size” to a ridiculously high value 
   like “72” and still can’t see any changes.
