    Glad you like it Erskine.

    You want to know what I think of the way Lotus expect you to use Domino? :o)

    Well, I appreciate them trying to make it easy for us. But I don't like easy if it means I lose some control.

    Here's the code Domino generates. Which, incidentally, appears AFTER any other CSS you might insert in the head yourself using HTML (which would break any cascading as discussed in this article).

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/apps/validation.nsf/codestore.css?OpenCssResource">

    If you didn;t know the HTML required to insert the resource then the approach of having Designer do the work could save the day. For the rest of us we're going to need more control. For instance, we couldn't insert a CSS resource this way and specify it as a style sheet to be used for printing only.

    Notice of the code generated that it's yet another part of Domino's HTML that's not XHTML compliant. To make it so, it would have to end with a " />".

    A nice idea but not for me I'm afraid.

    Jake
