A JavaScript library for creating alternate stylesheets dynamically, and switching between them and their originals.
The library was born out of the need to develop CSS on a remotely hosted site without setting up a development site. The script goes through all of the stylesheets on the page and adds alternate stylesheets for each style that matches specific URL replacement patterns.
One limitation is that browsers usually don't permit the alternate styles to be loaded as local files (using the file:// schema), so you still need the files to be served by a web server.
There are trhree bookmarklets available in bookmarklets.html that load, setup and trigger StyleSwitcher. (Unfortunately, GitHub doesn't let me include them in this README.)
The basic API for using this library programmatically looks like this:
styleSwitcher.processStyleSheets({
"http://www.example.com/css/": "http://localhost/example.com/css/"
});
myLink.onClick = function() {
styleSwitcher.switchStyle();
};
