Is it possible to allow users to browse with their own color choices? I mean have them select from a page the colors they would like to browse with? And use the default template set along with that info to create their own basic style?

I would think it would be. Here is one way to go about it.

Set up a new script that conains the logic for setting up colors and fonts, but not the header, footer, etc.

Have this script update the style tables, using the values from the default style for your header, footer, etc.

When the user changes their colors, etc, delete their old style and add a new one.

I am of two minds with regards to whether or not the styles are user selectable. On one hand, they could be, and could be named after the user.

On the other hand, you could make them not user selectable, and tinker with the global.php so that the creator of the style could still use it.

Hack could be quite considerable, if I didn't have work tommorow I would have an attempt at it just now. If no one has posted back with a solution by about 8pm GMT tommorow then I'll do it then and have it done in a couple of hours.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
