What is the process for modifying the attributes of a currency text box in a Dojo within XPages?

I have come across several discussions aimed at addressing this issue, but none of them have provided a clear and definitive solution that I can easily follow.

Is there a straightforward method to modify the css of a dojo field within XPages? Specifically, I am referring to a Dojo Currency Text Box.

<xe:djCurrencyTextBox id="I_H2"
                        value="#{document1.I_H2}" style="width:60px;">
        <xe:this.converter>
        <xp:convertNumber type="currency"></xp:convertNumber>
        </xe:this.converter>                
</xe:djCurrencyTextBox>

While I have read that direct styling is not recommended due to it being controlled by a theme and encapsulated within other div and span tags (even though it allows width adjustments), I am curious if there is a simple way to customize aspects such as the field's background color and other properties?

Answer №1

In my previous experience with XPages, I encountered a similar issue. One way to avoid your styles being overwritten is by adding "!important" after them. It's worth noting that some CSS enthusiasts may not approve of this method, but it does get the job done.

I personally haven't had much luck with disabling a theme, but it's worth a try if you haven't attempted it already.

If you're interested in learning more about using "!important", I recommend checking out a blog post I wrote on the topic, which can be found here:
