title: How to customize SKIN in Richfaces?
body: <p>I want to customize whole look and feel of my web application.
  Currently I am using Richfaces 4.1.0.</p>
  <h1>1st Trial:</h1>
  <p>To customize the SKIN I tried to follow <a href="http://www.packtpub.com/article/skin-customization-in-jboss-richfaces-3.3" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.packtpub.com/article/skin-customization-in-jboss-richfaces-3.3</a></p>
  <ol>
  <li>Added mySkin properties file.</li>
  <li>Updated build.xml</li>
  <li>Updated web.xml.</li>
  </ol>
  <p>But All this is not fruitful. I am not able to customize the SKIN.</p>
  <h1>2nd Trial:</h1>
  <p>Ref Link:- <a href="http://docs.jboss.org/richfaces/latest_4_1_X/Developer_Guide/en-US/html/chap-Developer_Guide-Skinning_and_theming.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://docs.jboss.org/richfaces/latest_4_1_X/Developer_Guide/en-US/html/chap-Developer_Guide-Skinning_and_theming.html</a></p>
  <pre><code>&lt;context-param&gt; &lt;param-name&gt;org.richfaces.skin&lt;/param-name&gt; 
  &lt;param-value&gt;emeraldTown&lt;/param-value&gt; &lt;/context-param&gt;
  </code></pre>
  <p>But this is also not working. To get it working am I required to add any additional <strong>RESOURCE</strong>?</p>
  <h1>3rd Trial:</h1>
  <pre><code>&lt;rich:tabPanel switchType=&quot;client&quot; style=&quot;width: 70%;margin: auto;background-color:red;&quot;&gt;
              
                  &lt;rich:tab header=&quot;Overview&quot;&gt;
                      Tab 1 Content
                  &lt;/rich:tab&gt;
                  &lt;rich:tab header=&quot;JSF 2 and RichFaces 4&quot;&gt;
                      Tab 2 Content
                  &lt;/rich:tab&gt;
              
          &lt;/rich:tabPanel&gt;
  </code></pre>
  <p>I tried to put background color <strong>Explicitly</strong>, but even this is failing.</p>
