Re: Re: Template per section

Dear all,
I'm triyng to obtain something like this, but I was not able to do this
only with css and I had to hack some page templates.

My requirements:

    * icons for portal_tabs and for content_views
    * the selected (and over) icon should be evidenced
    * if the cursor stays on an icon, a i18n message is to be displayed

I've done this (I can send a 131Kb tar file with the skin if anyone is
interested), but I had to modify global_sections.pt and
global_contentviews.pt.
I had also to modify plone.css.dtml

Anyone can help me to meet these requirements using only CSS?

Thanks
    Mirto
