loadining stylesheets

Sorry if this is a really basic question.

But what would be the best way to load a new stylesheet into an existing
page when the user presses a link, and replace the currently linked
versions?

Say I want to provide the ability to change the look of the page (eg text
only, larger, colour changes) so when the user clicks on one of these a new
appropriate stylesheet is loaded, instead of the current version?

And is there a way of applying this to a whole website?

Is there some major server-sided scripting involved?

There are low tech ways and higher tech ways. If you want just a
few pages, you can simply duplicate all the html files into
separate folders and link to docs in one or the other, each set
having a different css. If you use server side includes, you can
make the sets tiny in k size.

I found this - http://www.alistapart.com/stories/alternate/ - I haven't
tried to implement it yet, has anyone else?
