Something to try out this week. (I’ll try)
This one is interesting article on style sheet switcher with Ajax.
What I did to achieve this was used server-side cookies instead of JavaScript cookies. Hence, PHP. However this isn’t a “PHP style switcher” – which is where Ajax comes in. For the extreme technical folks, no, there is no xml involved here, or even a callback response. I only say Ajax because everyone knows what ‘it’ means. With that said, it’s the Ajax that sets the cookies ‘on the fly’.
I’ve read “Alternative Style: Working With Alternate Style Sheets”
by Paul Sowden article before and did tested it but never really make use of it.
I’m gonna read that again and also this new Ajax Style Switcher article “Introducing UDASSS!”
I scanned through the article and it’s pretty good one, the only thing I dont like about it is the name.
Unobtrusive Degradable Ajax Style Sheet Switcher!
Very hard for me to pronounce and remember.
Well UDASSS is alrite ofcos.

Sorry, the best I could do was come up with an easy to remember acronym. Just remember, You Dasss!
Thanks for your comment. Yes that’s how I remember too.
