I don't know a way to accomplish it with CSS, but one thing you could do is set up a simple web proxy that would perform the substitutions for you. The easy way would be to hack up a perl script, or the hard(er) way would be to modify squid to do it. Who knows, you might be able to get such a patch committed to squid for everyone to use. I did some quick googling and turned up these links: http://www.xmission.com/help/web/proxy.html http://dansguardian.org/ http://linux.tucows.com/preview/177233.html http://www.squidguard.org/ http://www.ingrid.org/~harada/filtering/ It seems like most of the existing solutions block or label the content with a rating, instead of doing substitution like you're looking for. But if they've already got the mechanism for this, they'd just need a little bit of code to alter the content based on a replacement list you supply.
