Includes dialog
The Includes dialog defines which style sheets and JavaScript files should be applied to a
section when generating output (see: "Styling templates with CSS files" on page200 and
Using JavaScript).
To open this dialog and make settings for one section, right-click the section on the Resources
pane and select Includes.
Email clients do not read CSS files and some even remove a <style> tag when it is present in
the email's header. Nevertheless, CSS files can be used with the Email context in the
Designer. When generating output from the Email context, the Designer converts all CSS rules
that apply to the content of the email to inline style tags, as if local formatting was applied.
