Hi Ishai, Yes it does. Sorry if I didn't make that clear. When I say default I am referring to the 'default.master' that ships with MOSS. I noted the differences between it and our custom master below. Thanks, Paul From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ishai Sagi

Then all you have to do is to slowly roll back the changes to the master page, until the problem stops - that way figure out what change is causing it From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paul Noone Sent: Monday, 17 November 2008 11:21 AM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com

Yes, that's all I have to do. I was just hoping someone could save me some time by having been this before. :) I've tried all the placeholders, disabling all custom CSS, changing/removing doctype, enabling/disabling custom components. It's very hard to identify just what is required to produce

Do you still reference the CORE.CSS or do you completely remove it from the HEAD tag? You should put your custom CSS after the CORE.CSS. eg HEAD Sharepoint:CssLink ID=CssLink1 runat=server/ link rel=stylesheet href=/mycustomcss.css / Something like that. This way you will not remove the

OK I'm afraid that since it's a .NET control it will render a different text if you set the master page using GUI if you know what I mean. Since now you switch the master page then that control will render your custom CSS but not the CORE.CSS. The best way to check what's renderd is by go to

Okay. Hm...let's use Reflector to see what that Apply CSS does to your site. I'm afraid it's setting up a particular property that is used by your page/control that then causes problems with the picture library web-part. Have you checked that the styles in your custom style sheet are custom
