UiBinder CSS URL

[SigmaBlu]

Is there a way to use a URL to access CSS when using UiBinder? I
already know that you can access this with in your package hierarchy.
Unfortunately, I don't have any idea how i can reference outside of
the package.

You can't access the css file from outside package within uibinder.
However, there are two ways to access the css file within uibinder.
1. Using inline style sheet within uibinder (<ui:style>...</ui:style>)
2. Using <ui:style src=" ">

Sudhakar,

I noticed that I can make changes to the Chrome.css, Standard.css, or
the Clean.css and the changes will be accepted.
From my understanding, those .css files are a result of changing the
settings in the .gwt.xml file
(i.e. <inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.chrome.Chrome' /
>....etc..). Can you tell me the order in which the .css files are
being read?
For example, does my .css thats referenced in the <ui:stule
src="xyz.css"> get referenced and compiled? Does the Chrome.css,
Standard.css, and Clean.css
get referenced first and my "xyz.css" overwrites that? This seems to
be the case.

Regards,
Sigma

Sudhakar,

I have messed around with the Chrome.css, Clean.css and Standard.css
styles that can be changed by changing the following tags in
the .gwt.xml file: <inherits
name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.chrome.Chrome' />, <inherits
name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.standard.Standard'/>, and <inherits
name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.clean.Clean'/>.

Whenever you deploy the war folder you can access these .css files in
the following directory: renamedModuleName/gwt/standard,
renamedModuleName/gwt/clean, and renamedModuleName/gwt/chrome.
By changing these .css files (Chrome.css) I have assumed the
following:
• It seems that my xyz.css thats being referenced by my UiBinder is
being compiled and turned into JavaScript.• Chrome.css, Standard.css,
and Clean.css seems to be read first and then overwritten by my
xyz.css’s compiled version (i.e. if my compiled css had made changes
then it "wins" and those changes are used).


Are my assumptions correct?

Sigma

Yeah the GWT theme is referenced in your HTML page source via

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://<domain>/<appname>/gwt/standard/standard.css">

This will always be done when you include a stylesheet via your module xml file in combination with a public folder and thats exactly how GWT themes are realized (take a look at Chrome.gwt.xml for example).

Any CSS you define in UiBinder will be added (injected via javascript) afterwards as <style> tags (one <style> tag per CssResource, so you possibly see multiple <style> tags in your HTML page source once your app is loaded).

Thank you both.
