How to set the CSS/Theme of a Diva Look app
Diva look introduces a new D2W key: stylesheet.
The CSS file computed by this key can be used as the global stylesheet for the application in your D2W PageWrapper.
e.g:
LHS | key | RHS |
---|---|---|
session.theme = 'Simple' | stylesheet | Simple.css |
A closer look at the CSS file...
1. CSS Imports
Code Block |
---|
@import url("_Neutral.css");
@import url("ERDIVEditPage.css");
@import url("NeutralEditToManyFault.css");
@import url("NeutralEditToOneFault.css");
@import url("NeutralCalendarDateSelect.css");
@import url("NeutralAjaxAccordion.css");
@import url("NeutralEditToOneRelationship2.css");
|
The CSS file _Neutral.css imports a global CSS for the theme, a generic one for the edit page ERDIVEditPage.css and CSS files for D2W components used on an edit page.

IE has a limitation of a max. of 32 CSS imports per page (and at a depth of 3). |
2. Image Replacement
Code Block |
---|
div#a h1.edit {
background: url(/WebObjects/Frameworks/JavaDirectToWeb.framework/WebServerResources/EditMetalBan.gif) no-repeat;
text-indent: -5000px;
}
|
Standard CSS image replacement applies.
Here, the edit page banner is being set. div#a h1.edit
is an example of a CSS selector. Diva D2W page content is nested inside a <div id="a">..</div>
. See: Layout of a Diva Look Page. Therefore it's CSS selector is div#a
. The page title is marked up as <h1 class="edit">..</h1>
, so the resulting CSS selector for that element would be h1.edit
or more specifically div#a h1.edit
.
