Using this guide: http://www.gwtproject.org/articles/gss_migration.html I converted all my CSS files to GSS. 2 of my CSS were loaded via the entry point HTML file index.html:
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="main.css">
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="gwt.css">
Now that those 2 files are GSS files, how do I include them in the project? I tried simply doing those 2 lines above with the GSS files, and while they do get loaded, some things don't work properly, such as custom styling on checkboxes.
Am I doing this right? I'd like those 2 files above to have access to GSS features, but I feel like this type of import only sees the files as CSS files with the wrong extension.
No, I think you missed some important things.
GSS is a compile step with optimization and dead "code" removal. The be able to do this, you will have to create a Bundle and a GssResource. You cannot include it in the HTML-file. All is done vie interfaces in your code.
In you linked gss migration file, there is a chapter "Prerequisites".
Take a look at the ClientBundle tutorial.

Is it possible to somehow automatically download all CSS files under a directory and its subdirectory without providing actual css file names
I have many css files, more specifically 12.
All are under a directory styles and its subdirectories (only 1 level of subdirectories).
Following syntax doesn’t work to load all css
<link href='https://xxx/styles/*/*.css' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css’/>
Is there a workaround to load all css or I’ve to add 12 lines in HTML to download these.
NOTE:
I’m ok to tradeoff performance for maintenance, and to have 12 different request instead of one. Its my personal webite and files are hosted from ny GitHub Pages.So I can not do any post processing to convert all file into one.
If you do not mind having multiple requests to the server, you can create a main CSS file and inside it add #import to the other files.
main.css
#import url('/css/file_one.css');
#import url('/css/file_two.css');
#import url('/css/dir/file_one.css');
And in your HTML file
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/main.css" />
Just do not remember if in import need to add the complete URL.
I try to link style sheets in a file with html file in different directory.
At first html document and CSS file were in the same directory and it were working well, till I moved style to other directory.
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/styles/style1.css">
</head>
You should go back one directory back by ../. This way go to parent folder of these two files. Then start to go into css file's directory.
href="../styles/style1.css"
Its a bad approach for putting styles and html folder in different directory try to use them in same folder so that where ever your run your project either on server ,local or in different directory, it work well.
If you do that(in different folder on windows) its hard coded and in programming(whatever Lagrange it is) hard coded coding is not allowed.
Well i think you only need:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles/style1.css">
</head>
Also you can use 'base' tag:
For more info : https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_base.asp
I have a style.css and a html files.
When I upload them to the server I see the headlines in the style I want but on my desktop I don't.
Both of my files are on the desktop
On the <head> I have this line in my html file:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/style.css">
What can I do to connect the files and see the style applied when I'm offline working on my desktop? and also online in my website
i want to add i just removed the / and it works offline on my desktop (just href="style.css") but not online - but i want to be able to see it both online and both offline ---- and online its not in the same file
** edit : now i see that what works on both is if i put my spesific website adress - than it works on both online and offline :
but if i will want to ever change my website adress it would be hard to change on each page thats why i want it to be : href="/style.css and not the website adress
If you are working locally without a webserver you need to link your css files like this:
<!-- Windows -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="C:\Path\to\File\main.css">
<!-- Linux & Stuff -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/path/to/file/main.css">
Additionally you could use the relative path to your file:
<!-- if it's in the same folder -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="main.css">
<!-- if it's in the css folder -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">
<!-- if it's in the parent folder -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../main.css">
your question is still not clear, but generally, your question seems to be based on the linking of the style sheet with your HTML file to see the results of your code on your personal laptop and the server both. The best practice to do that is to maintain a file structure which keeps the project organized, for example, there is a folder named "main" which is my project folder which further contains your subfolders like CSS and js, and inside these folders, you should keep your CSS and js files respectively.
A simple project file structure is,
main
|
|-css
|-style.css
|-js
|-script.js
|-file.html
If you follow the file structure to link your files, you won't go wrong, it doesn't matter whether you are on your personal desktop or on the server.
One thing i understood is that when you are working locally you have html files and the css file on the desktop. First of all i would recommend you to make a new folder and copy all your related files whether it be html files, css files or js files in that folder. It is a better way to encapsulate all your project files in a single folder.
Moving on to the css issue - you said that it works when you remove /. It works because since your files are all on desktop they are on same directory structure.
Enough for clarification I want you to follow these steps:-
First make a folder and copy your html files, css files and js files in it. Lets name the folder as website.
Create a folder named css inside the website folder. Copy all the css files in that css folder.
Inside your html files, inside the write <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css"> provided that the name of css file is style.css and you want to include this particular file in your html.
And regarding your online issue, I am not able to understand it. If you clarify a bit more i may be able to help.
Your files should have the same relative path on your desktop and server, so that you can use that same relative path for both. The relative path is based on the location of your HTML file in both.
If you have a folder on your desktop that has 2 files:
index.html
style.css
Inside of index.html, you'll reference your stylesheet using <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
If you have a folder on your desktop that has 1 file and 1 folder containing a file:
index.html
css/ (contains file: style.css)
Inside of index.html, you'll reference your stylesheet using <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css">
Since you said that <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css"> works correctly on your server, that means that your HTML and CSS files are contained in the same parent folder. On your local, you need to make sure that the same is true. That parent folder can be located anywhere - Documents, Desktop, a random subfolder - but as long as it contains that HTML file and that CSS file (and neither of them are nested in another contained folder), that <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css"> will work for both.
Note: You can change the folder structure of either server or desktop, or both - but the relative paths must match, so that your relative link works for both.
give like this
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
I am attempting to use Bootstrap; I am downloading example pages to build off of from the Bootstrap website. When I launch them, however, they look quite crummy in my Chrome browser.
For example, when I load the narrow-jumbotron page, the jumbotron spans the entire screen... What am I doing wrong? I have the css, js, and font folders inside the folder that I've saved the narrow-jumbotron.html page in.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Please check the source url or path of the css and other files. Possibly this is creating problem.
Firstly ensure that you have downloaded bootstrap.min.css and jumbotron-narrow.css.
Place them in the folder you are having the html file.
After that find the following 2 statements in your html file.
<link href="http://getbootstrap.com/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="http://getbootstrap.com/examples/jumbotron-narrow/jumbotron-narrow.css" rel="stylesheet">
Replace them with these lines:
<link href="bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="jumbotron-narrow.css" rel="stylesheet">
It looks like it's probably is a path issue. When you download the original bootstrap framework, you'll have a /css and a /js directory. How your new html files get access to those places depends on where you put those directories. I'm going to assume you have some bootstrap test area. Let's just call this your main bootstrap area or core file area, whatever.
After you set that up, you probably went back for the other download which has the /examples directory buried within it. The files in there are set up to deal with being a few directory levels down. When you went into the /examples directory folder, did you copy over the whole /examples branch? Or just one set of the example files?
Let's try this just as one example just to try to get things working. Then once you get it working if you want to mess with directory / folder organization and file paths, that's fine.
Go find the examples/theme directory, wherever you put it. In this /theme directory rename index.html to theme.html
Take the theme.html and theme.css out of your /examples/theme directory and put them in the root directory of wherever you have your bootstrap's root index.html file. Now your file paths to CSS files and such should be set to match what the index.html file is doing.
Go into the theme.html file and look for the lines with the ../../dist/css/ as suggested earlier.
But make them look like this... "css/bootstrap-theme.min.css"
This should now have these files getting called from the correct places. This alone should work for you.
There's still one issue though. You'll see in the theme.html file a link to "../../assets/js/ie-emulation-modes-warning.js"
You could just ignore this, but to really have things all in order, you need to get that path right. So, go find your original download of the examples and get the whole /assets folder and sub-folders copied into wherever you have your bootstrap root; that is /assets should be at the same level as /css and /js.
Once again then, fix the link to look like this "assets/js/ie-emulation-modes-warning.js"
This will hopefully get you going and give you a clear and obvious sense of how the file paths work. If you like going forward, put things into better directory / folder structures and re-do the paths. Remember if you wanted to on a real web server, (local or remote), you can always use virtual paths from the root so you don't have to keep track of the levels everyplace for such files.
In any case, I did just test this and ideally it will work for you as well.
Just place bootstrap.min.css and bootstrap.min.js in the same folder as carousel folder for example.
Then fix the path of the js file to this:
<script src="bootstrap.min.js"></script>
And fix the path of the css file to this:
<link href="bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
Try to delete "integrity" part
Instead of this:
<link href="css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" integrity="sha384-ggOyR0iXCbMQv3Xipma34MD+dH/1fQ784/j6cY/iJTQUOhcWr7x9JvoRxT2MZw1T" crossorigin="anonymous">
Make:
<link href="css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
As integrity attribute checks whether code was changed.
That might help.
As of 2022 and the BootStrap version v5.2 the way to fix it is to copy paste the bootstrap.min.css file you get when you download the ready-to-use compiled code to the example folder you want it in and then change these lines from
<link href="../assets/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
TO
<link href="bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
This must do the trick
I've been working on a project with a HTML and an external CSS file. The link worked fine at school when i was doing it on adobe dreamweaver on a mac, but i sent both files home via dropbox, and the css doesnt seem to link with the html file. I believe i've got the file paths and everything right, but just to make sure:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Desktop/Stylesheet.css" />
i also tried removing the "Desktop/" bit from the file directory, but it still didnt work. My Index file and Css file are both on my desktop. I am using windows. The same code worked at school, so i believe it might be something to do with with file location.
please help
Thanks in advance
This is how linking works,
Let's say your html file is in a folder named "xyz". Now when linking to css, the address is related to your html file's location. So if you mentioned
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Stylesheet.css" />
it would assume the css file is in the same folder as your html, while if you linked it as
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Desktop/Stylesheet.css" />
it would assume there is a folder named Desktop inside the folder xyz, and your css file is probably stored in Desktop.
Now im assuming you've simply placed both your html and css on your desktop directly, this is not good practice as you're probably going to move these files back to school as well. Hence I'd recommend you to place both in a folder and then link to your css with
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Stylesheet.css" />
and dont forget to pay attention to capitalization, yes html is non case sensitive but when it comes to linking external files, capitalization does matter.
Your directory structure should look as follows:
Root Directory
|
|-page.html
|-Desktop
|-StyleSheet.css
If it does not you need to modify your directory structure or change the href attribute on the link tag
If it is in the same directory simply set the path to href="Stylesheet.css"
The problem is with your file location .
If you are using Dreamweaver or any other code editor, simply browse to the path of the file to insert it in link href attribute, rather than manually entering the path .
