Thanks, Rapha�l. I was using 1.2b1, which did not have the
border-color skin property. I patched my b1 implementation with the
new portlet from CVS. It works great! I guess I should try for a
clean build from the current CVS to get all new features/fixes. Is
there an estimated date for 1.2b2?
I'm creating a portal with a similar look/feel to www.excite.com. Is
there a way to get the border around a titled portlet, as done by
excite? For now, I hacked TitledPortletControl to put a gray border
around all titled portlets, but would like to make this a skin
property.
For the title text color, I hacked TitledPortletControl with a
one-character modification. I now use TH instead of TD for the title
table cell, then use the existing default.css to modify the TH style
font color. Works great. this raises an interesting question about
the trade-off and/or overlap of skin properties and CSS styles...
I lost my reference for the FTP site containing daily snapshots of the
full CVS extract. Anyone have this handy?
Dave
