hi

when developing a custom module can I have a seperate style sheet to define the styles for controls like label, textbox etc?

is this not related to the style sheet used for skinning?

Hi Sayhi,

It's up to you.  Your module can hook into standard DNN classes (class="Normal", class="NormalRed", etc) which are typically implemented by whatever skin you're using, or you can add a link to your own module-specific stylesheet.

I think good general guidance would be to rely on "standard" DNN classes whenever possible (this includes datagrid styling), and to use a custom module stylesheet when this isn't sufficient.

When it comes to using a custom module stylesheet, you can choose to deploy it as an internal resource, as a file-based stylesheet in your DesktopModules\[ModuleName] directory, or into a portal-specific directory.  The location you choose will depend on the customization you wish to allow your end hosts and admins.

Hoppe this helps!
