Thought I'd post my work in progress in trying to do switchable alternate css stylesheets. I call it theme switching though not sure if that is the correct terminology.
I've put four theme links at the bottom of the left bar home tab, each setting an alternate stylesheet. In doing this I used a Perl template system to generate my alternate css files based on three colors and three contrasting text colors. While doing this it reminded me of the old skinconf with defined colors that were used as parameters to an xslt to create one css file. It got me thinking that Forrest could generate alternate css files then perhaps have a contract that would emulate the <forrest:css ...> tag in view files and insert all the required alternate css files. Perhaps even part of something like the publishedstrip contract to add the links to click to switch the themes rather than what I have done in site.xml at the moment. Anyway I'm probably way off track about what the new theme plugin will allow users to do driven off config' parameters. Anyone with a slow dial up? Do you see an unacceptable problem if pages aren't cached after choosing another theme other than the default 'dull' theme? http://www.kegcl.demon.co.uk/forrest/index.html Kevin
