Then MCC is a server-side language, right? It's being parsed by the server,
translated to HTML and sent to the browser.

If it's server-side you can't, because the tags never arrive at the client
side (browser). I suppose there are templates for the HTML that MCC
generates, maybe you should tweak those.

>Any thoughts ???? Does CSS only allowed re-defining of standard tags?

You can try to use CSS on your own tags (XML or HTML) but it depends on the
browser whether this works.
