[rules-dev] quick design questions to mull over - regarding the repo

[Michael Neale]

Hi Felipe - are you using the GWT bit?

I assume you mean the popup windows look bad?

GWT normally does a really good job cross browser - are you safari or
firefox?
Basically, what you are saying sounds like it is the CSS screwing up - so if
you track down the CSS that sets that up you may be able to change.
Also, with EditCSS in Firefox 1.5 or 2, you can browse and change the CSS
onscreen in real time.

Can you share what you have done? is it generic enough?

Michael.
