- From the WSRP specification
(http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/3343/oasis-200304-wsrp-specification-1.0.pdf),
section 10.6:

"[...]Using a common CSS style sheet for all Portlets, and defining a
set of standard styles, provides this common look-and-feel without
requiring the Portlets to generate Consumer-specific markup. Portlets
SHOULD use the CSS style definitions from this specification in order to
participate in a uniform display of their content by various Consumers.
For markup types that support CSS stylesheets, Consumers MUST supply a
CSS stylesheet to the End-User’s agent 30 with definitions for the
classes defined in section 10.6 of this specification.[...]"

The producer portlets SHOULD use the css style definitions on its
markup. Then each consumer MUST supply a CSS stylesheet with definitions
for the standard classes defined by the producer markup (i.e.
portlet-font, portlet-section-header, etc). The standard css styles are
defined in sections 10.6.1 to 10.6.7.

Regards.
Diego.
