Hey everyone. This is my first thread here, I hope it works out well

In my daily surfings I've come across websites such as zeloutis.com ( and others ) with the ability to change the style sheet while visiting the websites. I'd like to implement the effect into my blog, but I'm a little confused at how. I'm no professional designer but I do know enough HTML and CSS to create a pleasant looking website. My host currently offers PHP, Perl, and MYSQL.

I was hoping someone could describe the steps needed to do this and I could ask questions from there.

Thanks for any help

Well, I found Build a PHP Switcher from ALA so I suppose I have everything I need. It seems pretty simple.

mas: Yep but who does that these days? Lets be honest if it was mission-critical I wouldn't rely on JavaScript but as it is only changing the stylesheets then people who isable JS are probably not the kind of people who are going to be bothered if a stylesheet switcher doesn't work
