‘Disconnect’ between CSS and forms
Once in a while, often weeks apart, a Domino web application loses the appearance factors that are normally dependent on cascading style sheets. Everything appears with default fonts, colors, etc. The CSS's are stored as pages, the forms are all HTML and the link from form to CSS is coded in the 'HTML Head Content'. The immediate solution is to go into the design and re-save the css pages. But I don't know what causes the problem in the first place and how it can be prevented. Any ideas?

Answer Wiki:
Hi, well in my experience this is generally caused by the page not having the correct text type associated with it, e.g.,
go to the page properties dialog, then 'Web Access' -> Content type and choose Other, then enter text/css in the text box that appears. Pages are generally rendered as HTML which conflicts with the text type expected by the browser.
A better alternative would be to copy the CSS from the page, paste to a text editor, TextPad for example, save this to disc. In Notes Designer, open the required db and navigate to 'Shared Resource' -> 'Style Sheets' and import the CSS file saved earlier. Personally I'm not a fan of the Create resource method of form referencing, but hey I'm not doing it. My preferred method is to then is entering the below line in the HTMLHeadContent form field:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="" + @WebDbName + "/globalStyle!OpenCssResource">
Hope this helps
Paul
