Style Sheet filename for this folder: (leave blank to inherit)

Specify a style sheet that defines styles that may be applied to event content in this folder. The style sheet must reside in the site root folder. Or, leave this field blank to inherit the parent folder’s style sheet.

The style sheet populates the style dropdown list (see below) within the editor.

To set or edit the style sheet that determines your Web pages’ appearance, open the page’s Web form and place a <link rel=”stylesheet”... tag within its <HEAD> tags. If desired, you can identify the same style sheet in both locations. To include user-selectable styles, they must be generic classes.
