Popup Format Different Than Parent Page

By Will Bontrager

Recently, someone mentioned that the tab panel created with the tab panel generator had different font sizes when it was put into a popup.

When a document goes into a popup, styles may be different than when the content is published on the parent page itself. Some solutions are:

In the popup document, import the CSS styles the parent page uses.
Specify inline styles for the tabs and the panel content.
Use a hide/reveal div instead of a popup. (See Show/Hide a Div Content Layer for hide/reveal div instructions and code.)

A popup contains a web page. Formatting popup content is like formatting a reqular web page.
