Heya

What are the easiest methods of being able to choose/set a different skin
for the FE? Please assume that the required CSS stylesheet are existing.
So, my question is:
1. Can you please name the three most easiest methods to change the skin
(CSS stylesheet) of the frontend thru backend?

2. Can you please name the three most easiest methods to change the skin
(CSS stylesheet) of the frontend thru the frontend with a menu which is
automatically generated (much like sr_language_menu) or manually generated
links?


I did search the TER but didnt find. I did quick search though. I will do
another one in few hours time, but more in-depth to see if there is such
thing.
I usually create a CSS file per browser which covers all the templates
(DS/TO and FCEs). Basically having three css files means three different
skins:
-For FF: 1.css, 2.css, 3.css
-For IE6: 1_ie6.css, 2_ie6.css, 3_ie6.css
-For IE7: 1_ie7.css, 2_ie7.css, 3_ie7.css

This allows me to be able to easily have different skinning by changing the
CSS files

What are your thoughts?

Thanks,
Darko
