Laurent, That's my problem! I don't want to switch a directory, I want to switch a CSS. My XSLs are still the same through my skins so I don't want to duplicate them across many directories. Only my CSSs are going to change (that is the beauty of CSS). I've already read the documentation for the portal block and it doesn't help me very much... Maybe I missed something?

You are free to update the tab.xsl and use DIV instead. For a better understanding, on how a portal page is built, have a look on http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/developing/portal/portal-block.html Laurent Trillaud > -----Message d'origine----- > De�: JACOB, ERIC [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Envoy�: jeudi 30 octobre 2003 19:58 > ��: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Objet�: RE: RE : Skins in the new Portal Engine > > Thanks for the reply, but I think my question was not clear enough, so > I'll > ask it again differently. > > I looked to the XSL files in the portal demo and I was surprised by the > use > of TABLE tags for the layout.
