I want to do basically what www.spoono.com does with different 'flavor' sites, you click a flavor and the style sheet is changed. Can I do this without server-side scripting?

I know I could do this with ASP, but the hosting for the site I am working on doesn't support it. If it has to be done server-side, does anyone have a link to a php script that is easy to figure out for a beginner?

edit: Found an easy looking PHP script in the server-side forum. I should be able to figure that out. But I would still like to know if there is a way to do it without any server-side scripting. Probably no, but then again I am learning new things about CSS everyday that amaze me.

Thanks

Ramasax: There are numerous ways of doing this and we have covered a number - they are brought together in this FAQ:

Thanks guys, think I have it all worked out. I guess there is no reason to post any questions because there seems to be a FAQ for everything.

I think the general idea behind the faq is that you should first check for info there. If you're left with questions (or get new ones) after having read there, you should by all means post them. The faq isn't meant to discurage questions in any way

Yep the FAQ is to bring us all up to speed on a rather broad area and then we can discuss specifics and problems - it should just be the start not the end of things

Funny thing is I looked there, but missed it probably due to sleep depravation.

When I said there are no need to ask any questions because there is a FAQ for everything, it was a compliment to everyone here who has donated time to contribute to it. Definately one of my favorite resources.
