Intermittent Styles in Sites Pages

Hi - I have a Sites Page that the style in the Coposition Template is inconsistentlly applied.  When you first goto the Sites Home the styles are not applied, but when you use the search form to return some results the style is applied.  This happens in all of the related Sites Pages. Any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance. SCR

I'm guessing the search page mentioned here is the standard search page not a visualforce page.
The reason you are not getting the same look and feel is that your visualforce page has the showHeader="false" attribute.
 
try setting the tabstyle attribute as part of your page tag
 
tabStyle
 
String
 
The Salesforce object or custom Visualforce tab that controls the color,styling, and selected tab for this page. If using a Salesforce object,the attribute must be specified with the developer name for the object.For example, to use the styling associated with MyCustomObject, usetabStyle="MyCustomObject__c". If not specified, this value defaults tothe style of the associated controller (if a standard controller), orthe Home tab (if a custom controller). To use a custom Visualforce tab,set the attribute to the name (not label) of the tab followed by adouble-underscore and the word tab. For example, to use the styling ofa Visualforce tab with the name Source and a label Sources, usetabStyle="Source__tab".
