Yes, You are correct. We are trying to resize or customize the gadgets along with changing sample1.html styles according to our requirements.

Oh -- and I forgot to mention -- you referred to adding css "within the xml" -- which makes me think maybe you're trying to add your form inside of a gadget. In that case the gadget.css file wouldn't have any effect on content inside of gadgets themselves since the gadgets render within iframes. The gadgets.css file will only effect the sample1.html content.
Are you trying to style the contents of a gadget you're working on?

I'm still not clear about how/where/when your changing gadgets.css -- I just tried building and deploying shindig to tomcat and accessing:
... /container/sample1.html
Comes up fine and renders two gadgets. I then edited the gadgets.css file in Tomcats exploded webapp directory:
/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/container/gadgets.css
And added:
h2 {
font-size: 200pt
}
Reloaded the page and saw the css change reflected in the " Sample: Simple Container" text.
What exactly are you doing?

Sorry -- the link I sent earlier wouldn't be present in the 2.0 release. A lot of people are working off one of the more recent 3.0 beta releases and I had just assumed you were referring to one of those.
The testing I did above was actually with shindig trunk but I it should work just the same with shindig 2.0.
Hope this helps.

Hello Jesse,
Thank you for your response. What I'm trying is to implement a simple user form in sample1.html. I tried applying styles within the xml or adding at the end of gadgets.css file, but whatever styles I wrote they are being overwritten. Should I overwrite complete gadgets.css for applying my styles.
I tried the below link you gave, it gives me not found Error. Am I supposed to use latest repository version? I think I have latest release i.e. Shindig server 2.0.war.
Thank You
Veerendra

Hi Veerendra,
Can you give us more details about what exactly you're doing and what's happening?
Also -- there is a newer client side container sample called common container which would probably be a better place to start:
