[Using Sakai] Use default style sheets in HTML resources

Fri Jan 28 13:04:44 PST 2011

I have some HTML pages on my Sakai course site that I create by making a 
Web Resource tool point to an HTML page that is a resource for the site 
(i.e., created with the Resources tool).  This is mostly fine, except 
that the (CSS) style of the HTML that I write is rather different than 
the rest of the course site.  For example, whereas most text on the site 
is in a smaller sans-serif font, my HTML pages are in a comparatively 
large serif font.  Since that HTML appears in a frame within the rest of 
the site, the difference is especially jarring.

Is there a way to get my HTML to use the CSS that the rest of the site 
is using?  I don't seem to be able to specify any CSS in the HTML 
resource itself, because whenever I save the resource, any <head> 
section is deleted, leaving just the <body>.
