[css-d] How to override CSS hosted elswhere
http://www.sustainablefarmer.com/ - I have added a great new Google API feed
so that I can showcase my blog on my Home page. It's working great.
Here's the link to the Widget -
http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxfeeds/index.html
And here's the link to the Widget wizard -
http://www.google.com/uds/solutions/wizards/dynamicfeed.html
My problem is the link colors. The style sheet is hosted on the Google site,
so I can't just change the style sheet -- I need to override it.
I tried to adapt some of the info I found on this documentation page to
override the CSS -
http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxfeeds/documentation/reference.html
The code goes right where you want the widget to appear, so here's how I
modeified the style sheet. But it doesn't work. Is my CSS override wrong?
Or is it in the wrong place?
This is my modified style code (lines 3 through 11 are my CSS
modifications):
style type=text/css
@import url(
http://www.google.com/uds/solutions/dynamicfeed/gfdynamicfeedcontrol.css;);
/**
* Use a different color for links
*/
#feedControl a.gf-branding-clickable {
color: #99;
}
a:visited {
color: #66;
}
/style

Any help greatly appreciated -

The answer's in the source - take a look at the HTML generated by the
plugin. The div's got an id of feed-control, not feedControl, and
I can't find any links with class gf-branding-clickable. Try
changing your first declaration to
#feed-control a.gf-title {
color: #99;
}
Should do the trick (haven't tested it, though). You can inspect the
markup yourself using Firebug (or, most likely, any of the other
equally great web development Firefox extensions available).
Best,
-JR

Re: [css-d] How to override CSS hosted elswhere
Making styles either more specific, or adding the !important modifier will
also help in many of these situations:
#feed-control a.gf-title {
color: #99 !important;
}

You would be better off with a nice single-level CSS menu across the top
with sidebar context menus. The menu you have is extremely unusable - even
in the browsers in which it works. For that type of menu you really should
be using a scripted one.
