I believe that you can upload the site as a .zip file, unzip it within the Moodle file area and then create a file resource and point to the index.html file. As long as the references are all relative it should work. (At least I think I've done this before, I can't find any documentation of this at the moment).

I'd made start on a wiki page for this though I've not actually used this on our own Moodle (only used it for the first time on Moodle.org 2 minutes ago).

For the time being this added to the theme should help:

.section li ul li {list-style: disc;}

Though it will be interesting to see if the resource/activity indentation (which is currently done with spacer gifs and seems broken on HEAD) will be fixed to use nested lists.

If the Moodle theme code is making list items, or any other html in labels appear unexpectedly then that's a bug that should be fixed. You shouldn't have to work around it.

edit:

the overbroad css is here:

/*Accessibility: No-tables course format. */
#course-view ul.weekscss, .weekscss li,
#course-view ul.section, .section li {

in particular the .section li which the select oracle translates as: "any li element that is a descendant of any element with a class attribute that contains the word section"

The css should only remove the list styling of the immediate descendants of the ul. There's css to do exactly that (child selectors) but I don't think IE supports it. Alternatives are to put a css class round labels and remove all styling (which seems a bit bulky) or add classes to each li.

I think the best solution (explained tangentially here) may be to use selector specificity.

I've looked at this before to use .png format icons for transparency and larger, high-contrast icons for accessibility reasons. As far as I am aware it's not easily done at the moment.

There was some work done on the sideblocks recently, but looking at my most recent CVS version there doesn't seem to be any hooks for attaching images via CSS. Maybe it has changed in the last week or so, my copy is out of date.

(If you knew all the students were only going to access Moodle using the Firefox browser you could use some advanced CSS to do this, but that solution would be as much work as rewriting the PHP and offer less cross-browser support.)

I think this needs to be rewritten anyway (I believe Martin's mentioned the need to move images out of the HTML and into the CSS), so if you did the work you could maybe check it into the Moodle 1.7 development branch for collaboration and feedback. I've got some code lying about that shows how I approached the problem.

You can see it in this post though note that the demo links don't work anymore.
