Halos, styles, and components: msg#00177

Subject: Halos, styles, and components
I've been playing with adding tweaks to smallblog and one of the little things I've run across is that any changes to a blog's style affect all blogs because style is stored as a method on the WAComponent. While this is a great strategy for a website, its not so hot for multiple blogs that hope to have different themes.

So...

I've made a little change in WAViewer changing

renderCssOn: html
        html attributes rows: 20; cols: 80.
        html textAreaWithValue: presenter style callback:
                [:css |
                presenter class compile: 'style ^ ', css printString]

to

renderCssOn: html
        html attributes rows: 20; cols: 80.
        html textAreaWithValue: presenter style callback:
                [:css | presenter style: css ]

and adding a style: method to WAPresenter that does

style: aString
    self class compile: 'style ^', aString printString

This lets me override the style methods on SLFrame and delegate the keeping of the css to the SLBlog object itself.
