We have followed the guide provided by WSO2 to get access to the CSS / JSP pages.
Our aim is to re-theme / rebrand / restyle the login page. We have found that the login page is part of the jar: WSO2\repository\components\plugins\org.wso2.carbon.identity.sso.saml.ui_4.0.3.jar
The login page is called login_ajaxprocessor.jsp
The guide mentioned above states the following about JSP's ending with _ajaxprocessor.
By default when create a jsp file ( say “foo.jsp”) in a Carbon UI
component, it will inherit header, left menu and footer from the
Carbon core UI. But if the file name is “foo_ajaxprocessor.jsp”, there
will be no inheritance.
For an example let's consider, “login_ajaxprocessor.jsp” in
“org.wso2.carbon.identity.saml.sso.ui” component. It simply omit the
header, left menu and footer and display only the content from this
file. So we are able to customize this page in to a different look and
feel.
Were were successful in modifying the language (buttons, etc) in the JSP files. This Jar also contains a CSS file in: \web\sso-saml\css\main.css
We have modified this CSS file to my own style. However, when the page gets loaded, it seems the default WSO2 main.css file is read.
When looking at the default way in which the JSP page refers to the CSS, it says:
<link media="all" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="carbon/sso-saml/css/main.css"/>
We would expect that the /sso-saml/ part wordt select our own modified CSS file.
Is it possible to configure that for this page only, our modified CSS file will be used? We want to prevent to have to change the default main.css. Also, it is because we want to use specific images, that we want to store in jar\web\sso-saml\images
Yes you can use your custom style pages and apply them. Please refer [1] [2] for more info. This will guide you on your task.
Hope this will help you.

The login.jsp can be found in following jar.
/repository/components/plugins/org.wso2.carbon.ui_4.0.5.jar => /repository/components/plugins/login.jsp
and css => /repository/components/plugins

I have an application that loads some CSS from a url. The css is loaded from the HTML page using a link tag:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" data-ng-href="{{dynamicCss}}">
The dynamicCss variable is set in angular and it is a link of the type 'serverUrl/file.css?v=timeStamp'. The timestamp is generated by using timeStamp = new Date() * 1;
I am adding the timestamp to stop the css from being cached, as we allow css customisation and the css file needs to be recompiled by the server when the user customises the style.
There are other pages in the same application that load different css files, some of them without the timestamp, so they are cached. If I come from one of those pages, I can see the css that belongs to those pages in the source tab of my new page, even if those also have a timestamp to avoid caching.
My problem is: every time I deploy the code, if I look on the sources tab of Chrome and look for the css file, there is missing css when I compare it with the css file that the url 'serverUrl/file.css?v=timeStamp' loads. If I clear the cache the css in the sources tab of the browser matches the css in the link.
Any ideas of what is happening? Is there any problem with telling the browser to cache some css files and not others?
The problem was on the server side, some caching had been added.
I'm mostly certain that I set up my HTML script correctly, and made sure that the needed CSS file would be hosted in a shared folder on Google Drive, correctly cited, etc.
However, when I copy my HTML code into the box, and save it all, the editor always throes this error: 1+12 - 125: failed to load external url navigator.css
While I would think that linking the CSS file to the HTML code regularly, as I posted below, I only see so many issues coming up with CSS linking, and even more worrying, is that the Google support documentation (here) says that an HTML box can't 'refer' to external code, including what I believe may be such a CSS file.
<link href="http://[mixed aplhanumeric subdomain].googledrive.com/host/[shared folder's 'mixed' address]/navigator.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
Given that, would anyone know a simple workaround to linking the HTML to the CSS code in the Google sites HTML box?
The documentation shows an example with the CSS in <script> tags. I don't perceive any indication that including CSS from an external file is allowed. The documentation explicitly states that <link> tags are not allowed. The reason why Google Sites can't load CSS in a linked file, is because link tags are not allowed. You're only choice is to include the CSS in <style> tags.
There is an alternative though. You can create an Apps Script HTML Service application with separate HTML and CSS files, and then put the Apps Script application into your Google Site.
Apps Script HTML Service
If you want to use Css on Google SItes , you can use directly. not to use link.
Typo3 provides option to add multiple images to a page content, but all the images are wrapped under some default <div> tags. I want these images to be wrapped under <ul> and <li> tags instead and giving my own custom CSS ids and classes to it.
There are not many resources on TYPO3 for me to approach this issue. Can TYPO3 allow to use custom tags for the page content elements?
UPDATE
From Jost's answer was able to get my images displayed, but how do I split the image details?
My each image will have title, alt-text, image-path and image-link. Now, using TypoScript how do I retrieve this, because each details has to go in separate tags.
Check the TypoScript object browser. There you will find the object tt_content, which contains the rendering definitions for content elements. The rendering definition for images is found at tt_content.image.20, for example
tt_content.image.20.imageStdWrap.dataWrap = <div class="csc-textpic-imagewrap" style="width:{register:totalwidth}px;"> | </div>
The default definitions given there are usually provided by the static TypoScript of CSS-styled-content. You can overwrite them in your own TS, but when updating to a newer TYPO3-version, the default template may change, which could result in additional wrappers.
Update
Most content rendering in TYPO3 is defined in the TypoScript object tt_content. You can browse all TS-objects that will be used on a page by selecting the "Template" module and the page in question, and then choose "TypoScript Object Browser" in the selectbox at the top of the window. To understand what that stuff means, knowledge of TypoScript is necessary (Tutorial, Reference).
You can add your own TypoScript, which may override existing settings. You can do that in the Template-module too, but usually this is done by creating a file containing the script somewhere in the fileadmin folder and including it from the Template module.
The above enables you to edit the markup of the page. (Additional) CSS is usually defined in external files, that are included by a PAGE object (see the reference about that).
This post is a bit older but I want to add the following:
If you want to understand how the different content elements are wrapped, you may have a look into the css_styled_content extension. I assume that you have included the "Static Template (from extension)" in your main Typoscript template.
You can find the setup.txt here:
typo3/sysext/css_styled_content/static/setup.txt
There you´ll find the line Jost mentioned in line 860 (TYPO3 version 6.1), for example. And of course a lot of other definitions, too.
But check to read the documentation and tutorials on typo3.org.

I searched google and SO, but did not find a solution.
I have an asp.net web app that allows users to customize some GUI aspects (such as font color, add a custom logo etc). This information is stored in the user profile database.
I have a css file that populates font colors etc. The main page, loads the users profile from the database, and customizes the page accordingly.
Aside from having each label with its own "font-color=", how can I display the CSS elements, based on the user profile information returned from the database? Thx
You can include an extra CSS file that points to an ASPX page:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/CustomStyles.aspx" />
Then in CustomStyles.aspx change the default content-type:
Response.Clear()
Response.ContentType = "text/css"
Then just start outputting your styles:
Response.Write("#awesome-button{color:" & ColorFromDatabase & ";}"
Make sure that this file is included after the other styles so that it takes precedence. You might want to also throw an !IMPORTANT in there, too.
Response.Write("#awesome-button{color:" & ColorFromDatabase & " !IMPORTANT;}"
It depends on how you have the information stored, but you can add styling to elements through code like this:
Button1.Style["font-weight"] = "bold";
Or you can just apply a CSS class to the control:
Button1.CssClass = "buttonStyle";
You could have a page that just returns a CSS file based on the preferences stored in the database. So you would have:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="somepage.aspx?userid=<%=userID%>">
You could probably even do that easily enough with a classic ASP page, a web service, etc.
The point is that that page would generate the same basic stylesheet, filling in the right colors etc. that the user has chosen. This way you don't have to perform a bunch of style changes in server-side or client-side code after the page has loaded, or mix your user preference code in with your HTML, or change much about the base pages if you want to change the way the stylesheet works. It also makes it easy to test your stylesheet outside of testing the site itself.
I hope any of Oracle Portal experts here could help me out regarding this question.
I have a portal template/page that is using a HTML Page Skin. The skin may looks like:
<html>
<head>
<title>#TITLE#</title>
</head>
<body>
#BODY#
</body>
</html>
By using Oracle Portal, I could add portlets (PL/SQL and Java portlet) to the body section, in its respective template/page. However there is no way that I am aware of that could enable me to add portlets to other section in the HTML Skin, eg in section.
I need to dynamically change the title with some value that I get from the page URL and query string.
eg. if the page's url is http://www.example.com/portal/page/portal/examplepagegroup/page1?param1=paramvalue
so that the title will be 'param1', and it should be done without javascript technique.
How could I get the request parameter param1 from the URL so that it will be available to the head section? I am thinking of PL/SQL code to be used here, but, I do not how to access query string of current page.
Please comment here if clarification to the question is needed. Thanks.
The page title is a static attribute of the Portal page. There is no supported way for a portlet to change the page title dynamically at runtime. The rendering engine combines the HTML from each portlet with some HTML it builds itself, and the title is part of what the renderer builds.
What is possible is to dynamically build pages with specific names by calling WWSBR_API.ADD_FOLDER (a folder is the same as a page). See So your portlet could build a page and then redirect to it.
