I would be honored. Here's what I do (ASP example)

<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" title="Main
Stylesheet">
<% dim sheet
if session("sheet") = "" then
if request.querystring("color") <> "" then
sheet = request.querystring("color")
session("sheet") = sheet
else
sheet = "green" 'default color
end if
else
sheet = session("sheet")
end if
%>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<%=sheet%>.css" type="text/css" title="<%
=sheet%>">

Then further on the page somewhere in an include
<ul>
<li><a href="<%=request.servervariables("script_name")%>?color=red">Red</a>
</li>
