veeger,
I have fixed the probem anyway, There hapened to be an issue as I was reloading the skin package with the same name and also there were a few portals that used the (previous version of the ) skin and DNN was using that old version and not picking up the new one though I had pointed the right direction for the files. For me lesson learnt was to use different names when appling changed skins, DNN thinks its a new skin and picks things up straight away. I appreciate your help.
I have a few other questions by the way:
1. I have some javascript functionality that I would like to include. Would including with a link tag do the trick? I am asking this as it said "unable to parse the .js file" when I tried to install the skin (including the .js).. the other things worked fine .. I didnt put the link tag though.. may be i shaould try that.. thanks for answering once again..
2. what should I do if I had mor than one .css file in the skin? does dotnetnuke pick it up? or do you say there is no point in having multiple .css files as all of them can be merged into one?
I would appreciate a response from you
thanks
Harsha
