Style picker
permalinkI added a style picker to the bottom of the page to allow the visitor to pick which style they would like to use when navigating the site. It uses a piece of Javascript written by Mark Wilton-Jones to save the current stylesheet in a cookie and later restore it when the page changes.
Each style link consists of a short Javascript link like so:
javascript:changeStyle('Default Style')
A small script in the <head> section of the HTML, along with the body onunload method, is hooked up to the style saving/loading code to transparently maintain the user’s current style:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript1.2">
useStyleAgain('lastStyle');
</script>
<body onload="useStyleAgain('lastStyle');"
onunload="rememberStyle('lastStyle');">
The Javascript to do this magic can be found here.
