Hello,
I tend to think that your CSS selectors are not specific enough. See
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/cascade.html .
You have to make sure that your CSS rules are taken in account after
the default XWiki CSS rules (ex: CSS StyleSheet linked in the header
after the default ones that contain the rules that you want to change
=> this can be done by using skin extensions
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/SkinExtensionsTutorial
) and you have to make sure that your selector's specificity is
correct.
Raluca.

Thanks Lockie for the suggestion only the same thing
is happening!!
Firebug definitely shows the CSS alright but I alter what the screen is
telling and nothing happens even though Firebug reports the change after
a refresh....
The issue is that the CSS is quite complex and am no CSS expert meaning
that if things are dependent on certain criteria I won't be able to see it.
Am back where I started I guess :-(

Kaya

Hi Kaya,
While I haven't worked with Toucan skin before, the easiest way to edit the
.css file of any skin is to get the Firebug addon for the Firefox browser.
Then its just a matter clicking on the html in the main panel, and seeing
what css is related to which part of the skin in the right panel.

Hope that helps,
Lockie
