Hi Dave
The problem with stylesheet handling at the moment is that stylesheet
tiddlers may be rendered in any order. That means that in order to override
an existing style you can't just rely on being executed second. Instead,
your style rules need to have a higher specificity than the corresponding
rule in the theme that you're overriding. (See
http://www.htmldog.com/guides/css/intermediate/specificity/ for a simple
overview).
For example, to redefine the body background colour, instead of:
body {
background: red;
}
You could increase the specificity by inserting an otherwise redundant
selector for the root HTML tag:
html body {
background: red;
}
Let me know how you get on,
Best wishes
Jeremy
