Hi all,

there's a way to override the Page Skin from the module code?

Thank you in advance.

The general idea is, that it is the site owner who decides over the look and feel of his site. As a module developper you should not make his life too dificult. However, if you want your module to look a certain way, you should use your own module specific classes and specify them in your module.css

You should not try to overide default classes, eg. .Normal or .NormalBold

Hi Peter, thank you for your answer.

I agree with you, i would like to override the page skin just for the admin pages of my module.

If the site owner use a fixed width for his skin, will be difficult for him to manage the module, because it's better for this admin pages the use of full width.

I would like to override the page skin instead of open a new window for the admin pages.

note: i don't like the solution with the "SkinSrc" in the querystring.

Thanks!
