quickform Renderer Tableless - css stylesheet

[amosmos]

Hi,

Sorry for this complete beginner question.

How do I use the css stylesheet in my code? where do I copy it too?

Do I just use it inside the php file that I use (like the contact.php example)? If so, how will I know which classes and ID's the package generate?

Thank you,
Amos

well i think i understand what you answered.

basically, in order to use the renderer, one has to copy-paste the css code from the stylesheet that came with package into his php file, correct?

at the beginning i thought that there is a way to "tell" quickform_renderer_tableless where is the CSS file, or even better, just have it read a certain CSS file by default (lets say the one that came with it) and give me the ability to supply the renderer with a new one if i want to - maybe something like:

$renderer->setNewCssFile('some directory here')

this way you can just start right away with a styled form, and if you have minor changes to it you just open the attached stylesheet and make those edits. the code stays clean, design and functionality stays separated, and time is saved.

anyway, as an average (or maybe less then the average) user of this package, i would recommend detailing a bit more in the manual about the need to copy the CSS stylesheet inside the php file itself. i think that it is also important to put some comments in the "Introduction" example where the css should go. something like:

/*CSS styles goes here
You can use the example stylesheet as a starting point */

form{
.......
}

it took me sometime to understand it.

as for my second question, are all the classes generated by the package are described in the example stylesheet?

before i finish it is important for me to thank you so much for this wonderful package and for your quick answer to my problem.
