First step is to understand why was this template created. This one is easy, as template documentation explains it all: we want to have a box with colored ribbon with an icon, title and content. Template call is nicely done as well, and it is crystal clear. We will have to work with 6 parameters (this is more like pseudo code, a working and tested version of the code will be in dnContentBox-template):

|title=
|id=
|image=
|content=
|link=
|palette=

Lets try to read template code... Eheum... Lets don't. Lets dissect it, that can work:

<includeonly>
<div style="
position:relative; left:4px; right: 4px; top:2px;
border:1px solid #{{ColorAtys|group={{{palette}}}}};
height:25px;
background: #{{ColorAtys|type=bg|group={{{palette}}}}};
background: linear-gradient(to right, #{{ColorAtys|type=bg|group={{{palette}}}}}, #{{ColorAtys|type=light|group={{{palette}}}}});
border: thin solid #{{ColorAtys|type=bg|group={{{palette}}}}};
border-bottom: thin outset #{{ColorAtys|type=dark|group={{{palette}}}}};
color: #{{ColorAtys|type=fg|group={{{palette}}}}};
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 1.25em;
text-align: center;
">

Lets pull out stuff that looks suspicious:

border:1px solid #{{ColorAtys|group={{{palette}}}}};

Ok, we are setting color to border here... #{{ColorAtys|group={{{palette}}}}}... Altho idea is good, this looks a bit too complicated for me, plus putting # in front of a template, I am not sure that that's the best practice... as hash sign here is a integral part of the hex-color. Maintain colors is a discussion on it self... Lets just assume that Colors can be defined with two parameters: pallete and function. So same line in my code would look like:

border:1px solid {{:{{{Pallete}}}{{varColorsBorder}}}};

I would apply same logic to rest of that

and try to bring 'stuff' together, with this result:

position:relative; left:4px; right: 4px; top:2px; height:25px;
border:1px solid {{:{{{Pallete}}}{{varColorsBorder}}}};
background: {{:{{{Pallete}}}{{varColorsBackGround}}}};
background: linear-gradient(to right, {{:{{{Pallete}}}{{varColorsLight}}}}, {{:{{{Pallete}}}{{varColorsDark}}}});
border: thin solid {{:{{{Pallete}}}{{varColorsBorder}}}};
border-bottom: thin outset {{:{{{Pallete}}}{{varColorsDark}}}};
color: {{:{{{Pallete}}}{{varColorsTextColor}}}};
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 1.25em;
text-align: center;

and as it bothers me to look at it while reading rest of code:

<div style={{:dnContentBox/css|Pallete={{{Pallete}}}}}">
<div style="position:absolute; left:5px; top:-5px;">[[File:{{{image}}}|38px|link=]]</div>
<div style="position:absolute; left:40px; top:2px; right:0px"><h2 {{#if:{{{id|}}} | id="{{{id}}}Head"| }} style="margin:0; border-bottom:0; font-size:120%; font-weight:bold; text-align:left; padding:.15em .4em;
text-shadow: #{{ColorAtys|type=light|group={{{palette}}}}} -0.1em -0.1em 0.2em, #{{ColorAtys|type=dark|group={{{palette}}}}} 0.1em 0.1em 0.2em;">{{{title}}}</h2></div></div>
|-
|<div {{#if:{{{id|}}}|id="{{{id}}}"|}} style="padding-left:10px; padding-bottom:5px; padding-top:0px;">
{{{content}}}
{{#if:{{{link|}}}|<div align="right">{{{link}}}</div>|}}
</div>
|-
</includeonly>

Not gonna go into detail here.. but rest needs the same, imo: <syntaxhighlight lang='css'>

DnContentBox/image DnContentBox/title DnContentBox/content

<syntaxhighlight lang='css'> Ta Da!!! I can read that :-)

Cascade

Result of all that mambo-jambo above will look like:

dnContentBox
dnContentBox/css
- dnContentBox/title
- dnContentBox/title/css
- dnContentBox/content
- dnContentBox/content/css
- dnContentBox/documentation

But before I can present you with my version of ContentBox, I need to have colors...
