Thanks Yihui and Jeff.
I've retrieved the default CSS file and made a tweak to it (changing a
header 1 size just to test it) and saved it to the same local directory as
my .Rmd file using the name 'mymarkdown.css' for testing.
I've added:
options(rstudio.markdownToHTML =
function(inputFile, outputFile) {
require(markdown)
markdownToHTML(inputFile, outputFile, stylesheet='mymarkdown.css')
}
)
to the top of my testfile.Rmd file so that my file now looks like:
options(rstudio.markdownToHTML =
function(inputFile, outputFile) {
require(markdown)
markdownToHTML(inputFile, outputFile, stylesheet='mymarkdown.css')
}
)
Title
========================================================
This is an R Markdown document. Markdown is a simple formatting syntax for
authoring web pages (click the **Help** toolbar button for more details on
using R Markdown).
When you click the **Knit HTML** button a web page will be generated that
includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks
within the document. You can embed an R code chunk like this:
```{r}
summary(cars)
```
But when I knit it, it just writes the "options" chunk at the top of my
document. Am I supposed to add something else to get the .rmd file to
reference the css?
I'm quite new to programming and R (as if you couldn't tell!), so not sure
what additional steps I need to add.
Thanks much.
Jeff
