Adapting the Look & Feel

One of the guiding principles of Application Designer is to provide high-quality controls by simply specifying tags inside a layout definition. Each tag is rendered when generating the intelligent HTML page into various HTML and JavaScript statements. The HTML statements contain the specification of the display style of each control. For example, a label is rendered into a table cell having a defined background (typically a bottom line), a defined text size, etc.

This part describes how to modify the default rendering with the help of style sheets in order to adapt the look and feel to your needs.

The information provided in this part is organized under the following headings:
