But, I would definitely not let my users mess with styles other people can use. The reason is very simple. Anyone with a little knowledge in Javascript can easily steal cookie data from you with malicious code. So one can create his own style, put some JS code in the header template and bam - anyone using the style (even for once) will have his account stolen.

True. But this is an addon, while there may be a way to steal cookie data with malicious code. This could be a very usefull hack. I have added some security to the script, but I am still not totally sure about the security like you have said. So firefly do you think there are any steps to take to get around this?

And thank you for the comment.
