How to skin s:link using a4j skin.properties

[jbuechel]

Hi,

i'm looking for the best way to skin s:link component (or other default components).

The theme.css which is generated through seam-gen is defining selectors such as a:link etc.

Can somebody tell what's the best way to use the skin functionality of a4j with seam?

Just checking that you realise that "a:link" in your css doesn't refer to ajax4JSF right?

Sorry for my english.

Yes, it does not refer to ajax4JSF.
I was talking about css code such following:

a:link {color: #FF0000}
a:visited {color: #00FF00}
a:hover {color: #FF00FF}
a:active {color: #0000FF}

You should probably have a read of the Ajax4JSF guide and ask some questions in that forum.

Personally, I'd rather style these things myself via classes and my own CSS, but I like playing with colours.

Cheers,

Damian.

Actually i don't wanna implement my own render-kit.

Ok, just thought maybe seam supports this skin stuff somehow..
So, i'll go on with that forum and hope for answer..
