50 +== How to set the CSS/Theme of a D2W Page ==
51 +
52 +Diva look introduces a new D2W key: **stylesheet**.
53 +The CSS file computed by this key will be set as the stylesheet for the page.
54 +
55 +e.g:
56 +
57 +|= LHS |= key |= RHS
58 +| task = 'edit' |**stylesheet**| //NeutralEditPage.css//
59 +| task = 'inspect' and session.theme = 'Simple' |**stylesheet**| //SimpleInspectPage.css// |
60 +
61 +==== A closer look at the CSS file... ====
62 +
63 +===== 1. CSS Imports =====
64 +
65 +{{code}}
66 +
67 +@import url("Neutral.css");
68 +@import url("ERDIVEditPage.css");
69 +@import url("NeutralEditToManyFault.css");
70 +@import url("NeutralEditToOneFault.css");
71 +@import url("NeutralCalendarDateSelect.css");
72 +@import url("NeutralAjaxAccordion.css");
73 +@import url("NeutralEditToOneRelationship2.css");
74 +
75 +{{/code}}
76 +
77 +The CSS file //NeutralEditPage.css// imports a global CSS for the theme, //Neutral.css//, a generic one for the edit page //ERDIVEditPage.css// and CSS files for D2W components used on an edit page.
78 +
79 +{{note title="Note"}}
80 +
81 +*IE* has a limitation of a max. of 32 CSS files per page (and a depth of 3).
82 +
83 +{{/note}}
84 +
85 +===== 2. Image Replacement =====
86 +
87 +{{code}}
88 +
89 +div#a h1.edit {
90 + background: url(/WebObjects/Frameworks/JavaDirectToWeb.framework/WebServerResources/EditMetalBan.gif) no-repeat;
91 + text-indent: -5000px;
92 +}
93 +
94 +{{/code}}
95 +
96 +Standard CSS image replacement applies.
97 +
98 +Here, the edit page banner is being set. {{color value="red"}}{{div#a h1.edit}}{{/color}} is an example of a **CSS selector**. Diva D2W page content is nested inside a ##<div id="a">..</div>##. It's CSS selector is {{color value="red"}}{{div#a}}{{/color}}. The page title is marked up as ##<h1 class="edit">..</h1>##, so the resulting CSS selector for that element would be {{color value="red"}}{{h1.edit}}{{/color}} or more specifically {{color value="red"}}{{div#a h1.edit}}{{/color}}.
99 +
100 +{{tip title="Tip"}}
101 +
102 +All CSS selectors in a Diva D2W page begin with *{{div#a}}*.
103 +
104 +{{/tip}}
105 +
106 +{{children}}{{/children}}
