Thanks for the cool tip!
I'm going to try it tomorrow to see how it goes... right now I feel I'm
using too many inlineStyle properties precisely because of situations like
this.
If you decide to post skinning tips, be sure to tell us where :)

af|inputText.myStyleClass::label should parse in the css file to:
.af_inputText.myStyleClass .af_inputText_label {}
If it doesn't, I think it is a bug.
I'll submit a JIRA issue.
But, there is a simple workaround:
af|inputText.myStyleClass af|inputText::label {}
This is easier on the parser. :)
It parses to :
.af_inputText.myStyleClass .af_inputText_label {}
This says, "Style the dom element with the styleclass af_inputText_label
which has a parent with styleclasses af_inputText AND myStyleClass."
Then you say this:
<af:inputText styleClass="myStyleClass"/>
The 'myStyleClass' is what I call a 'marker' styleclass -- don't go
googling this, I made up the term. :)
It's a way to mark this particular inputText so you can use your style
definition for only the inputText's that have this marker.
I can post blogs for skinning with tips like this. Where should I put
these?
Thanks,
