Hi Mark, The jquery-ui-....custom....js file changes only with the widgets you include, not the themes.
In other words, the custom.js file is totally theme-independent. Same for the custom .CSS files -- they contain only the core- selectors, and selectors that apply to the specific widgets you've selected. To get all the runtime theme variations you need to download and host each CSS folder, or you can use the ThemeSwitcher which downloads and applies the appropriate theme CSS at run-time. The ThemeSwitcher is rather javascript-heavy, but its functionality and "wow-factor" make it worthwhile, in my opinion, especially for proof-of-concept stages of development. Another goodie with the ThemeRoller is cookie-support, so the user's last theme preference is remembered the next-time they re-enter. I think that's really slick. Did you know... the CSS themes files are also hosted on the Google Ajax CDN? For example, for the "Redmond" theme: http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.7.2/themes/redmond/jquery-ui.css If you get CSS files from the CDN they include all the core selectors as well as all the CSS for all the UI-widgets. In my view, given these come from a very fast CDN, and given that downloading everything is just simpler, it may make sense to go this way. I hope this helps. **--** Steve On Sep 14, 4:05 pm, Mark Jackson <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Steve, > > Could you tell me, does the jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom.min.js file change > when > you build custom themes and select all the components of the > framework?
