Cascading Style Sheets for struts tags?

Hi all

How is it possible to use CSS for struts tags? Or does anybody know a better
way than using CSS for formating etc. WEB pages generated with struts and
JSP?
      <style type="text/css">
        html:text {color: green}
      </style>

Does not work with me.

Thanks
Roland

Best Practice is to create a css folder for your web site/app and create a
*.css file.
Example Directory Structure:

root
  |-css
     |-mycssfile.css


Link it to your jsp/html pages as an an external style sheet.
Example:

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

Create classes within the css file.
Example class:

 .aclass  { color: #500; font-weight: normal; font-size: 12px; font-family:
Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Swiss, SunSans-Regular; text-decoration: none }
and use the styleClass

Assign your style to the struts html elements using the styleClass attribute
and the name of the class you wish to use.
Example class assignment:

<html:link page="/gohere" styleClass="aclass">A link</html:link>
