I made an alternate stylesheet in the Layout section, made the page that will use this stylesheet. Assigned it’s Layout as Stylesheet02, Page Type: normal however when I load the page, all I see is the unformatted stylesheet, and no content. Looked through the Radiant /docs, was unable to see a solution Cheers, Ben. ---

You need to create a page named Stylesheet02 with layout Stylesheet. Stylesheet is a simple layout with only \ in the body and text/css as content-type. Then you can link to Stylesheet02 like a simple css file.

Hi Andrea, I made the Stylesheet02, with layout: stylesheet, Page Type: normal Made the test page Splash with some simple and used the rel css link =\> Test of non-inherit Radiant page insert text Using layout: inherit, layout: normal, layout: text/xml, layout: XML feed produce an Error 404. While layout: stylesheet, produces a blank (desired) page with some minimalHTML content however without any .css formatting. Is the new stylesheet02 page required to be titled stylesheet02.css? Cheers, Ben. ---

Hi Ben, I’m not sure I fully understand your problem. If you want to use a second stylesheet, you do it exactly the same way as you use the first one. 1. Create a layout for stylesheet - all that has is the r:content tag 2. Create stylesheet 2 as a _page_ that has the layout ‘styleheet’ 3A. Create a content page of type ‘normal’ and include a tag to the stylesheet from that page OR 3B1. Create a layout (layout2) that is a full HTML page that will be served and uses stylesheet2 3B2. Create a page of type normal that has the layout ‘layout2’ Remember: a style sheet is not a layout. It is just another page. The instructions you need to repeat are steps 1,3, and 5 of my hello world tutorial (I just noticed that my tutorial doesn’t have a step 4): [http://notepad.onghu.com/2007/5/26/hello-world-using-radiant-cms](http://notepad.onghu.com/2007/5/26/hello-world-using-radiant-cms) I just saw your next email - to make a stylesheet work properly, could you refer to step 5 in my tutorial above. Hope this helps. Cheers, Mohit. 8/17/2007 | 9:18 AM. ---
