Magnus,
standard.css is "added" after your style sheets are loaded. Unless
your style definitions are more selective that the definitions in
standard.css, the definitions in standard.css take precedence.
There are to possible solutions
- make your selectors more precise(googleon css priority for detailed
descriptions, much better that I could do here)
- mark your style definition as !important, for example, that's how I
override the settings for .gwt-button
.authenticate-button {
background: white none !important ;
margin:2px !important;
}
