+
+The regular templates files currently do not use style sheets. Many skin developers choose to use them, it helps in separating style from content.
+
+Example: To use a style sheet for the broadcast message, add this to `view.myskin.tmpl`:
+
+    <style type="text/css">
+    .broadcastmessage {
+        background: yellow; display:block;
+        border-style:solid;border-width: 2px;border-color:red;
+    }
+    .broadcastmessage strong {color: red}
+    </style>
+
+Then add a div tag to the `%BROADCASTMESSAGE%` variable located after the `#PageTop` anchor or after the opening form tag:
+
+    <div class="broadcastmessage"> %BROADCASTMESSAGE% </div>
