Overview
WEBDEV gives you the ability to import a CSS style sheet into a WEBDEV project.
This allows you to reuse the styles created with another tool and to include them in your WEBDEV website.
Note: When importing an existing HTML page, WEBDEV also suggests importing its CSS styles. For more details, see Importing an existing HTML page.
Importing an existing style sheet
To import an existing CSS style sheet:
  1. Open a page in the page editor.
  2. In the "Page" pane, in the "Skin and styles" group, pull down "Styles" and select "Edit WEBDEV and external CSS element styles".
  3. In the window that appears, click on the "External CSS resources" tab. From this window, you can:
    • Import a CSS file:
      In the file explorer, select the CSS file to be imported. This file will be copied to the project directory if necessary.
    • New in SaaS
      Point to CSS:
      Enter the URL of the resource to be referenced.

      Note: the referenced resource must be referenced and accessed from a different domain.
      Note: This feature is only available from WINDEV Suite SaaS 2025 - Update 2.
      For more details, see Using new features exclusive to WINDEV Suite SaaS 2025.
    • Delete selected CSS.
    • Relocate selected CSS.
  4. Validate.
Note Imported styles can be used:
  • directly in the "Style" tab of the fields, specifying the CSS class to be used in the "Element style" field.
  • when creating a new style.
Minimum version required
  • Version 9
