The theme jar i am talking about is located at:
<netbeans-install-dir>/visualweb2/modules/ext/webui-jsf-suntheme.jar . The
documented way of doing this update is to download the woodstock source,
change the file in the themes module, build a netbeans component library and
install it.. But i think directly editing the jar file mentioned in the
above location should also work.. Havent tested it out in a while..

After you do the changes and created a war file, unzip the war file and see
whether the changes you made in the jar have been included. If you have the
localized theme jar for the languages you want to display, you can make
similar changes to those theme jars too.
