Can anyone tell me what I have to do to edit what renders in the "head"and "link" tags in the html?

Take a look at the DNNCreative Skinning Toolkit.

what I want to do is edit what stylesheets are being linked to in the head tags of the final rendered html.

There isn't a method for doing this without editing core code.

But, you can call up individual css stylesheets based on the name of the skin, for instance, your DotNetNuke portal currently calls in:

default.css, skin.css, container.css

If you create a skin named mygreenskin.htm and include a css file named mygreenskin.css, it will call up the css code, so you will then have:

default.css, skin.css, mygreenskin.css, container.css

If that doesn't give you enough control then in the root of your DotNetNuke installation files, open default.aspx.vb

In there you will find the code for calling in various css styles (press ctrl+F and search for 'css') you will find the section of code that calls in the stylesheets.

Bear in mind, if you do edit this,  you will need to transfer that code when you do an upgrade of DotNetNuke.

Thanks,

If you want to change the styles for just a single module, you can also use the "header" and "footer" that you'll find in the advanced module settings. The idea is to insert < div class="myCssClass" > before the module and < /div > after the module.

Then you can style the head, link, and others for myCssClass. You could put those styles in the skin.css file, or you could use a < style > and < /style > in the header for the module.

You can use the Web Developer's Toolbar that Lee has demonstrated in several tutorials to see how all of this can work.
