Hi,

In some old post I saw that you can set your skin with this and it works in DNN 2.x:

Dim CSSFile As String = "/Portals/styles/test/skin.css"
Dim litCSS As Literal = New Literal
litCSS.Text = "<LINK href= " & CSSFile & " type=text/css rel=stylesheet>"
Dim objCSS As System.Web.UI.Control = Page.FindControl("CSS")
objCSS.Controls.Add(litCSS)


But in 3.x it fails, I tried setting CSSFile to different paths but it wouldnt load the skin.css.
So does it still work or do I have to change the code?

Did you eventually find a solution to this?  I'm in the same boat (trying to dynamically load a skin).

You can do the following:

Dim cssHolder As Control = CType(Me.Page, DotNetNuke.Framework.CDefault).FindControl("CSS")

If Not (cssHolder Is Nothing) Then
   Dim cssLink As New HtmlGenericControl("LINK")
   With cssLink
         .ID = "SOME_ID_NAME" & CStr(Me.ModuleId)
         .Attributes("rel") = "stylesheet"
         .Attributes("type") = "text/css"
         .Attributes("href") = Me.ResolveUrl(SOME_CSS_PATH)
   End With
   cssHolder.Controls.Add(cssLink)
End if

that should work just fine,

 

Thanks much.  I'll tell how the process went once I find time to sit down to do it (busy with paying projects at the moment).
