Hi,
how could I access widgets in e.g. the <head> of a template file. I need to define some local CSS styles depending on the content of a widget, and the CSS should go into the head of the HTML.
I tried something like this
<style type="text/css">
<% control SideBar %>
<% control blogPosts %>
.latest-blog-post-$ID {
/* CSS here */
}
<% end_control %>
<% end_control %>
</style>but it doesn't work. I would appreciate any ideas.
Cheers!
Anatol
Hm, why is the answer always obvious a minute after I posted here? Anyway, it might be helpful for others. This works:
<style type="text/css">
<% control SideBar %>
<% control Widgets %>
<% if class = LatestBlogPost %>
<% control blogPosts %>
.latest-blog-post-$ID {
/* CSS here */
}
<% end_control %>
<% end_if %>
<% end_control %>
<% end_control %>
</style>Maybe there's a shorter way with less nesting, but for now that's sufficient.
