You could use PHP and cookies (session variables are only useful until the browser is closed, so it's not as persistant as it sounds like you may want). You could also have a system where users log in and they can save their preferences on their user account settings. What you may also look into is using Javascript (which can also set and retrieve cookies) and with a good Javascript library like jQuery, it should be relatively easy to dynamically switch style sheets. Here's an example of a jQuery based stylesheet switcher: http://www.kelvinluck.com/assets/jquery/styleswitch/toggle.html Click the styles1, styles2 and styles3 links. Also, there are JS scripts for adjusting font size, so you may not need a completely different stylesheet. But it would mean having well designed HTML that will scale nicely with the font change. Or you could just have a different stylesheet, as you mentioned, so you know it will look exactly how you want. You can see an example of a font size JS here: http://www.joomla-beez.com/ Keep clicking the links in the upper right and you can continue to increase or decrease the size quite a bit, not just one step. I know this is a PHP list but I think a client side script may work better in this case. -TG ----- Original Message ----- From: David Mehler <dave.mehler@xxxxxxxxx> To: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Sun, 7 Feb 2010 23:20:18 -0500 Subject: php selecting multiple stylesheets > Hello, > I'm trying to set up a web site.
