Any way to make custom css load first on a form?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

Hello, I have some custom css (I know it is not supported?) which overlays after the (customised contact) form loads.

Does anybody know any way of removing this short lag between the form loading and the css overlay occurring?

e.g. anyway of ensuring the css takes precedence?

Many thanks,

- Seamus

    I don't think there is a viable way to do this. If you have CRM OnPremise, you might be able to create an httphandler to add a link to the css in the html header. This would get it loaded before CRM starts loading web resources, but it would also be unsupported, and risks breaking things on any CRM upgrade

    Thanks David  - yes it is onPremise CRM2013. On a custom contact from where would I acess the html header? I'm already loading the css through a javascript onLoad function but there is a noticeable delay in the overlay.

    Hi Seamus,

    Not sure if this helps, but take a look at the following posts:

    Hope one of these solutions works for you.

    Remember that these are unsupported customizations as they use the dom.

    Thanks Aric for providing these links - these are what I am already using but when I implement them there is a delay between the base form loading and the new css overlaying.
