Hi Deven,

You use the right workaround. I can't change this easily, it's because the checkout control is called by NavigateURL. In this case, the standard DNN behavior is to apply the admin skin to the loaded control. Previously, the module was loaded with SkinSrc and ContainerSrc infos passed to the querystring. But that generated a lot of errors and did not function in most cases. Because a limitation of all Windows system about the length path (260 chars). As you can see with the following url, the length is about 300 chars with de standard DNN Gray skin.

http://localhost/dotnetnuke_2/Store/Myorders/tabid/55/ctl/Checkout/mid/375/Default.aspx?SkinSrc=/DotNetNuke_2/Portals/_default/Skins/DNN-Gray/Horizontal%20Menu%20-%20Fixed%20Width.ascx&ContainerSrc=/DotNetNuke_2/Portals/_default/Containers/DNN-Gray/Image%20Header%20-%20White%20Background.ascx

I should make much modifications in a forthcoming version so that the skin is not replaced any more.

We (team members) are Humans offering their knowledge, their work and their spare time FOR FREE to benefit the community. It would be so particularly appreciated that your messages begin with "Hello" and end with "Thank you" or any other form of politeness. Ask yourself what your reaction would be, if you were approached by me (a total stranger) on the street to ask you something without saying "Hello" nor "Thank you"? After several years of services dedicated to the community, I begin to be tired to read requests without any form of politeness.

Believe it or not, I found the easiest way to deal with the styles in the storefront (and prevent conflicts with your site's skin) is to remove them entirely from the templates folder.  They don't seem to add any value.  Then, add one or two styles as needed, such as setting the cart details table width to 100%.
