DHTML Window Widget & CSS

[GothyStitch]

1) Script Title: DHTML Window Widget 1.03

2) Script URL (on DD): http://dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex8/dhtmlwindow/

3) Describe problem:

I'm hoping that this widget will allow me to work around the compatibility problems I'm having with IE and FireFox/Opera. But I'm not knowledgable enough to understand how to setup the CSS that I am supposed to use with the widget and the existing CSS that I have in use on my site.

I am pretty certain that I cannot use two different CSS on a single page, and I'm not certain how to combine the two without causing problems.

Any suggestions?

What compatibility issues are you having? You can have multiple CSS file references on the same page, for example:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="windowfiles/dhtmlwindow.css" type="text/css" />

<link rel="stylesheet" href="mycssfile.css" type="text/css" />

Oh, heh! I wasn't aware that I could have more than one CSS reference. Thanks ddadmin!

As for compatability issues, in FF/Opera things look fine, but in IE7 spacing is off, there's a gap in between the top image and the rest of the page, and what I was needing to find a workaround for was popups. I use them for certain forms on the site so that the surfer isn't taken away from the site to fill out a quick "Contact" form. But in IE7 it opens the popups in a new tab instead of a new window. I'm hoping that by using the DHTML Windows that I can continue to use the popups for that purpose.

I know the simple solution would be to instruct the surfers on how to change the "New Tab" setting in IE, but I think it would be better to just use a different method in order to bring up these forms.
