[development] Using Admin Theme on Other Pages

[Doug Green]

Yes, that's pretty much what I do in the civicrm_theme.

http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/contributions/modules/civicrm_theme/civicrm_theme.module?revision=1.1

function civicrm_theme_menu($may_cache) {
  if ($may_cache) {
  }
  elseif (arg(0) == 'civicrm') {
    global $custom_theme;
    $theme_var = arg(1) == 'admin' ? 'civicrm_admin_theme' : 'civicrm_theme';
    if (($custom_theme = variable_get($theme_var, '0')) != '0') {
      $path = drupal_get_path('module', 'system');
      drupal_add_css($path .'/admin.css', 'module');
    }
  }
  return array();
}
