Hello PHP friends
I went searching (Core PHP Programm, php.net and google) for an
answer, but didn't find anything that did what I want, namely: Use PHP to
set the style sheet for a site.
I am trying this method: Register a global variable ($CSS) using a FORM.
Currently this does not work at all in Internet Explorer ver6. It does
work in Mozilla 0.99 and Opera v6, but ONLY for page when it reloads... as
soon as I go to another page, the $CSS variable seems to get reset to
'global'
I wonder if I am not doing something stupid/overlooking something obvious,
but I am very new @ PHP so that is possible.
I have attached my various code snippets here.
// in my global PHP file
// Now what I am trying to do here is set a default that should ONLY be
// used if the $CSS variable is NOT already set
if (!isset($CSS))
{
// if it is not set, then and only then set it and define it
session_start();
session_register("CSS");
$CSS="global";
}
// in my global header file:
// this should take the variable $CSS and use it for the style sheet
// yes the .css should be appended to the $CSS
echo <<< EOD
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="/global/css/$CSS.css"
/>
EOD;
//in my global footer file
// here is where we set the variable by the FORM and reload the page
echo <<< EOD
<div style="text-align: right">
<form action="$PHP_SELF" method="post">
<p>Choose style:
<select name="CSS">
<option value="default" selected="selected">Default</option>
<option value="smaller">Smaller</option>
<option value="tamecolors">Tamer Colors</option>
<option value="print">Print</option>
</select>
<input alt="Set Style" type="submit" name="Set Style" value="Set Style" />
</p>
<p>Current style is: <strong>$CSS</strong></p>
</form>
</div>
EOD;
Any help appreciated....
Thanks
