Hi Marc, I disagree UIManager comes with 2 methods:
getStylecss() getStylecss(RunData data) You can check it out here: http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/turbine-22/apidocs/org/apache/turbine/ services/pull/util/UIManager.html I have done something similar assigning different designs to usergroups by putting the skins' name into permament storage. If it is not there determine the skin for the user and store the skins' name into permanent storage, etc. Worked pretty good.

Using UI you need to set each html-tag explicitly. What I need is a css-definition that will cover the whole application. > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Jürgen Hoffmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Gesendet: Sonntag, 26.
