[mapguide-internals] Style help

[Jason Birch]

You guys rock, thanks very much for the help, and for that document.

Hope I can find some time to pull all of this stuff that I'm learning into
documentation at some point; right now I'm working from the RFCs, an
Imaginit white paper, and the schema :)

It's very cool though that it's there when needed; I couldn't get this to
work with a composite line style at all.
