Disabling a style sheet

[Ripper]

I know you can select an option in Firefox to turn off style sheets. But is there code that will do this so that a user can click a link to turn it off? Searched Google without much luck :/

I didn't know how to do this personally but I've used scripts in the past which I just found online. There are lots of examples - you just need to search better!

E.g.

I don't know how much asp you kow but this could also be helpful:

ps these are not the best examples - I did one search only and looked for a second!

Another one: http://www.ecst.csuchico.edu/~bertucci/csci245/styleswitcher.htm

And one using jQuery: http://15daysofjquery.com/style-sheet-switcheroo/12/

EDIT: these examples deal with switching stylesheets rather than simply disabling them, but I'm sure the principles demonstrated can be applied to your problem.

Right well I've already got a style switcher. What I've just decided to do is stick media=print to one of the stylesheet link tags and that seems to work the same!

To "disable" style sheets you just have a link to a blank style sheet - using media=print will work but is not the best as if someone who has poor eyesight wants to print off the page (when they are viewing the media=print stylesheet) they will suddenly get all the styles back!
