Change to new css file when click anchor without Javascript.

[gwhitehe]

Is this possible?

I have to make a site acessible to all browser users, even those with Javascript disabled.

I want to use an anchor to switch to a new CSS file without using Javascript. The new CSS file turns the page to high contrast for certain visually impaired users

It's easy enough to do with Javascript, but I can't find a way to do it without using Javascript.

I don't want to write a new page that uses the new CSS file, as this means maintaining 2 HTML files with the same information, the only difference being their CSS files.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hi

It can be done only programmatically. Can be also solved with server-side script too, but HTML alone is still not enough.

Alternatively you can rely on the browsers' capability to change the style sheets. But note that such changes are not permanent, usually browser addons are needed for that. See HTML 4.01 | Style Sheets | External style sheets | Preferred and alternate style sheets for more.

Thanks for the reply. I suspected that was the case, just threw it out there to see what came back.

Oh well, guess I'll try a different route.
