I've set up a customization plugin and use plugin_customization.ini to
configure my Infocenter. I've set topic_css to use a CSS I have in my
customization plug-in.
With the content plug-ins, if I don't have content associated with a TOC
entry, Eclipse generates a mini-TOC and displays it in the content frame,
which is okay, but it doesn't access the CSS in the same way the regular
content pages do.
For example, in my implementation, the content pages access the CSS in the
following way:
<link rel="stylesheet"
href=" ../content/PLUGINS_ROOT/com.citrix.proddoc.ICbase/CSS/book.c ss "
type="text/css"></link>
Where com.citrix.proddoc.ICbase/CSS/book.css is what I set topic_css to.
The Eclipse generated pages, however, try to get the CSS in the following
way:
<link rel="stylesheet"
href="../content/PLUGINS_ROOT/PRODUCT_PLUGIN/book.css"
type="text/css"></link>
It's looking for the CSS in the wrong location. Does anyone know where I
can set the value for the Eclipse generated pages or how I can set
PRODUCT_PLUGIN?

Hi Mike,
I recommend that you open a request for enhancement to have a help
preference for print.css. It seems a parallel use case to the other CSS
files. If it is straightforward to implement, and the Eclipse UA team
has the time resources to do it, it could get into 3.5, and they might
be able to also do a patch for Eclipse 3.4.
Are you familiar with Eclipse Bugzilla? It will have a link on how to
open a new enhancement request. You'll need to be registered with
Eclipse Bugzilla to open one.
Another option, if you don't have time to wait for an official
implementation, is you could replace the Eclipse print.css with your
own. I see the print.css is located in the following plug-in in the 3.4
GA package:
org.eclipse.help.webapp_3.3.100.v20080528.jar
and is in the advanced directory in that jar file.
You'd have to update that plug-in JAR file to put in your own
"print.css" to replace the one from Eclipse.
HTH,

Yes, please do open this enhancement request. It looks like for Eclipse
3.5 I will be adding another option to be able to specify a CSS file for
right to left languages.

Hi,
Chris, thanks for the encouragement.
Just to close a loop on this: I've opened the enhancement request myself
for this in 3.5. I didn't see a new one from Mike, and as it's a nice
parallel use case to the existing ones, I thought time was of the essence.

Thanks, Lee Anne! Yes, I discover that nav_css works for generated content.
We are also looking at using a CSS for print preview. I noticed the print
preview tries to use "print.css" I didn't see an attribute that contols
the CSS for print preview. It doesn't use topic_css, nav_css, or
disabled_css. Just for kicks, I tried print_css, but it didn't work either.

No it's intentional and working as designed. Under the old scheme it was
possible to have different css for navigation pages and non-navigation
pages and this preserves that option.
