Do not use skin, not working

[samanta.fernandez]

Hi, I already have a design in my site, I want to use richFaces only to add ajax, but not to use a skin. I've already set the skin to DEFAULT, and set the attribute "styleClass=" ..."', but my pages don't look as before.

Should I configure something else?

I'm starting to use this technology, so, it can be a very basic error...
Thanks in advance.

It sounds very strange for me. Skinability is a feature of particular components, but not the application. If you do not use such components, the look-n-feel of the application cannot be changed at all.
So, most likely we can speak not about the skinability in your case. I probably, can say more if you provide more details what and when happens

Found the problem, the code generated by richfaces doesn't use th and td for dataTables, as JSF did, so, my stylesheet doesn't match.
I supose that I'm using the components the wrong way. will continue searching a way to especify differences between titles and data.

yes, rich:dataTable can multi-rows header with rowspans and colspans in it. Also, the rich:dataTable can contain rich:subTable. While we developed we realized the th with its "bold" and "center" just impairs the default look-n-feel.
Any elements in the rich:dataTable you can change with style classes

Hi,

My problem is that skinability is not applied at all the rich components are displayed without styles.

Im using JSF1.1 and tomcat 5

and i have in web.xml

<context-param>
<param-name>org.ajax4jsf.SKIN</param-name>
<param-value>DEFAULT</param-value>
</context-param>

any ideas?

Thanks,

I'm thinking with param-value "DEFAULT", you do not get a skin.

for testing, try your webapp with this entry:

<context-param>
<param-name>org.ajax4jsf.SKIN</param-name>
<param-value>blueSky</param-value>
</context-param>

Hope this helps!

Based on other your posts, your problem has nothing to do with skin definition
