[Chameleon] having skins in a custom directory

[Eijnden, B. van den (Bart)]

Hi Paul,

I do register the skin with an absolute path already:

$this->registerskin(dirname(__FILE__).'/skins/geoservices');

I'll try to come up with a better solution after a more thorough analysis.

Best regards,
Bart

Bart,

you could register an absolute path to the skins directory, this  
should be the first (and fastest) case resolved.  Or you could  
register a relative path that gets caught earlier, like relative to  
your application directory.

I'm not sure moving that 4th case up would be the right solution, its  
been a long time since I looked at that code and it seems to me that  
it would cause problems but I am not sure how :)

Cheers

Paul
