i’m displaying the content of a document in an overlay using
plone/document?ajax_load=True&ajax_include_head=True as the src for an iframe.

in development mode appending &diazo.off=1 did the trick.
on the production server this sadly does not work, so i added the
ajax_load parameter as suggested in the documentation of plone.app.theming

i wrapped all my directives in a <rules if-not="$ajax_load"> element to make sure they are not applied (see code below)

now i’d need to mark the body of the iframed page with a certain class to apply different styles (eg no background color for the body in overlays)

the solution proposed for a nearly similar question does only work if you are using a theme with a body element having a class attribute to operate on.

is there a way to add a class to the content without having a theme (using )?
or do i have to supply an empty html document (index2.html) as theme and apply lots of rules to copy over css/js etc twice?

<rules if="$ajax_load">

    <!-- theme href="index.html" /-->

    <notheme />


    <!-- only works when using a theme -->
    <before theme-children="/html/body"><xsl:attribute name="class"><xsl:value-of select="/html/body/@class"/> my class</xsl:attribute></before>


    <!-- thought this could to the trick but does not work at all -->
    <xsl:template match="html/body">
    <xsl:attribute name="class"> foo</xsl:attribute>
    </xsl:template>


</rules>

<rules if-not="$ajax_load">


    <theme href="index.html" />

    <replace content="/html/head/title" theme="/html/head/title" />
    ...

    Obviously without a theme to operate on, any rule referencing a theme does not work in conjunction with <notheme/>. You can however <drop> and <replace> content (I have ideas of how to implement <before> and <after> content, but its difficult to implement. Maybe in a future version of Diazo.) However you can achieve the same thing with a small amount of xslt:

    <replace content="/html/body/@class">
    <xsl:attribute name="class"><xsl:value-of select="."/> newclass</xsl:attribute>
</replace>
