[css-d] Possible to overriding embedded SS with external SS?
I'm pretty sure this is bass-ackwards, but I need to be able to over-ride an embedded stylesheet with an external one, if the external one exists. I was thinking it might be possible to do using javascript something like this... The embedded stylesheet would be included in the js code. On page load, the script checks to see if the external stylesheet exists and then either writes it or the included one to the page's head. Anybody have any experience with / thoughts about the viability of this approach? Happy to explain more about the problem / constraints if desired.

However, I don't see it as a big problem. On the server side try to fetch the stylesheet and if the result is zilch just write out the local one. You could even do it in AJAX, but that is a bit pointless as you need a server side component anyways (as AJAX cannot reach files outside the same domain). -- Chris Heilmann Blog: http://www.wait-till-i.com Writing: http://icant.co.uk/ Binaries: http://www.onlinetools.org/ __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

I was thinking it might be possible to do using javascript something like this... it is off-topic, but I am also on the php list so may as well answer this here. You could check whether the external stylesheet exists, and if so do a str_replace on the content between the style elements. Pretty simple - if you know php. -- http://www.web-buddha.co.uk dynamic web programming from Reigate, Surrey UK (php, mysql, xhtml, css) look out for project karma, our new venture, coming soon! __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
