Change Style Drop-Down

This is exactly what you see here, on this board's main page.
It allows you to easily change the style you are using.
Please note that it does not update your user profile as well, it simply sets a cookie, and until it expires you will see the style you selected.
Anyhow, download the attached .txt file and do what it says.

Scroll down to a post by me if you'd like the hack to update the user setting in the database!
The attached version does NOT do that!

Have fun and happy holidays!

Try changing this:

$allstyles=$DB_site->query("SELECT style.title, user.styleid, COUNT(*) AS count FROM user LEFT JOIN style USING (styleid) WHERE style.styleid IS NOT NULL AND style.userselect=1 GROUP BY user.styleid");

to this:

$allstyles=$DB_site->query("SELECT style.title, user.styleid, COUNT(*) AS count FROM style LEFT JOIN user USING (styleid) WHERE style.userselect=1 GROUP BY user.styleid");

@firefly

its me again! i installed your newer version. i have two styles.
The problem i have is that i can change from 1st to second style , but if i try changing back it doesn't work. It only reloads the page!

Any suggestion?

Thanks

Thank you for another great hack!

I think most all the hacks I'm using on my site are one's you've written.

BTW: The search for custom fields worked perfect to help me set up an address book.

I'm sure all the visitors to everyone's sites thanks you also for making their lives easier.

I just wish I knew how to put the drop-down in the header like Jakeman did.
I'm going to have very seperate sections of my site with a log-in on my home page (which won't be the forum index page), so not everyone going to my site will even go to the forum home.

Well... anyway...
Thanks again! I'm looking forward to the next hack.
