CSS Template changes on the fly

Filed under: — Mark @ 12:10 am

Found some really interesting articles at A List Apart dot com about dynamic stylsheet changes using a simple javascript and storing the information as cookies. I was really itching to try it out with all the talk at WordPress Forums about retro stylesheets for WordPress and my 3 column stylesheets. So here are the results. On the top right hand side of the menu you will see the themes I have installed for my version of WordPress with a few modifications to suit my second menu column. Feel free to play around and see which one you like best. If you would like to impliment this on your site ( no matter which CMS you use, this will work for you ) simply visit the List Apart link above and download the javascript and follow the instructions. If you are confused, feel free to email me and I will try to help.
PS: once you choose a templte/style, a cookie is set on your computer which remembers your choice for the next time :-) The themes break in Mozilla (for now) and do not degrade well, but thats not the point of this exercise
