In short, I need to apply a stylesheet to all topics in a namespace but
not to the admin and topic edit pages (etc.). Being able to put the
Stylesheet property in a custom border (defined in _NormalBorders) and to
disable stylesheet loading from WikiDefault.js would be it, but properties
in borders don't work. <OverrideStylesheet> doesn't work either, because
it doesn't exclude admin and edit pages.

Yes I do :-). And it serves me well, even as a workaround for my
stylesheet problem: At the moment I just insert a <link /> referencing my
stylesheet into the TopBorder via FleXhtml. But specifying stylesheets in
the document body is not nice at all and I don't know about potential side
effects. And sometimes, when a browser (especially IE) hangs while loading
the page, you see the default (wiki.css) design shortly before it becomes
replaced by my css.

Unfortunately, this would require me to break things down to a demo test
case because until now, it's not even on the intranet ;-)...

The failure of the Stylesheet property is easy to replicate, though. This
problem should exist on all FlexWiki versions which include the cookie
mechanism of WikiDefault.js.

Thanks a lot for your responses,

Benno.
