PHP, style-switching, and the fearful redesign...

Hello all. I just redesigned my website in PHP and I have to mention that PHP is awesome.
So now I'm asking you all to test my site... (give it a refresh just in case). Let me know what works and what doesn't... such as:
- Does the style switching work? Can you navigate without losing the style?
- Does it look bad with Javascript disabled? btw, all the javascript will be gone really soon, as soon as I can rewrite the scripts in PHP.
- Is there anything that doesn't work right?
- Is anyone interested in finding out how some of this is done? I'll probably make a tutorial soon, since you can't just view the source to see the php.
Also, I have a really important question... how do you guys deal with page cache? I change stuff really often and I don't want anything to get cached, but the meta tags "expire" and "no-cache" don't eliminate caching entirely. IE has a bug where it will cache stuff it sees after the meta tags, and there is a hack to prevent that, but the hack is not xhtml compliant... what I am looking for is a fully xhtml compliant technique.
Thanks in advance!
