Cascading Style Sheets
The look and feel of user interface elements are controlled by cascading style sheets. Cascading style sheets contain classes that define elements such as color schemes and fonts. Cascading style sheet files (.css files) are located in:
- The Siebel Server installation directory
- The Mobile or Dedicated Web Client installation directory
- The Tools installation directory
The following are examples of how you could use cascading style sheets to modify the look and feel of the user interface:
- Have text appear in the font of your choice
- Specify that size of text in points, pixels, and many other units
- Add any color or background color for images
The .SWT templates can be configured to use formatting tags. By storing style-related information in cascading style sheets rather than .SWT templates, you can increase the modularity and consistency of your applications and the ease with which the .SWT templates can be modified and reused.
See Siebel Developer's Reference for more information about cascading style sheets.
Since style-related information stored in cascading style sheets is rendered slightly differently in different browsers, customers should test the results in both browsers unless their users are restricted to one or the other.
See Siebel Developer's Reference for cascading style sheet definitions.
