Thanks for your response. After reading the wiki I am still a bit confused
as to what is actually happening. Yes, I am loading this at runtime. What
happens is that the server gets the theme information from a database. This
information is different for every client and can be different between
'instances' of our application on the same database. So, our server loads in
the configuration information for fonts and I create the file that I
attached above. That file is loaded in the startup HTM file. Once the
current application is running, I can use the debugger and enter
"swep.Appearance" and it tells me that it is a [Theme swep.Appearance] so it
is getting loaded. What I think is not happening is that it is not getting
folded into the current theme. I never needed to do anything more then what
I am doing now with .7, but it looks like I need to do something else in .8.
In .7 I simply executed the file in a <script> tag and it added my themes to
the main system and I could then just apply them to a control. It also looks
like the new themes are looking for an added string to tell the system what
part of the control to apply the theme to, eg: MyThemeName/Label if I wanted
to theme the label portion of and radio control. Is this the case?
Previously i just had a simple name and used it to apply the theme.

I guess I might be over thinking this. Thanks for your assistance.

Jim
