Re: Override body style with CssResource

I should correct myself that it's not really a "flash" (which implies a page refresh). Instead, I saw the Standard stylesheet applied and then in a split second, my stylesheet is applied.

Hi, I am relatively new to GWT. I am creating a GWT application that will be embedded into a DIV of an existing webapp . Obviously, I would like to keep the existing webapp's styling, especially on the common elements, e.g. body, td, select, etc.

I've read that CssResource is the way to go. So, I gave it a try.

My .gwt.xml has the following lines:

  <inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.standard.Standard'/>

  <inherits name="com.google.gwt.resources.Resources" />

In my css file, I put the styles of the webapp there. I created the ClientBundle and inject my CSS in my EntryPoint.

All seems fine. However, when I invoke the app. on IE8, I see the GWT Standard styles applied first and in a flash, my overridden styles are applied.

So, I think I am overriding the styles successfully. However, how do I avoid that "flash" when the Standard styles are being applied before my styles?

Thanks in advance.
