Wow… I learn new thing here… TQ for the snippet..
Yo man really cool. I agree with mansur. Learnt a new evil technique.
I am trying to clean up a mess that was created from Framemaker and trying to override a bunch
of styles using a style sheet.
I tried using the following code but it seems to ignore it
ul.B-Bullet1 {
list-style-type: circle !important;
font-family: “Arial”, Verdana, sans-serif;
color: #17202A;
margin-left: 30px !important;
font-size: 100%;
}
ul.B-Bullet2{
list-style-type: square !important;
font-family: “Arial”, Verdana, sans-serif;
color: #17202A;
margin-left: 30px !important;
font-size: 100%;
}
what am i doing wrong?
It’s evil!!!
Code clean and you dont have to do this.
Chris, it’s not evil but sometimes neccessary. Imagine you use something like Joomla and need to chnage CSS styles of a module. If they update the module all is gone. But if you extract the styles you want to edit and “import” them, you can attach your onw CSS with the changes and most times you will have no trouble updating :)

.sticky{
