RE: [Bodington-developers] CSS and Colours in Bodington

[Paul D. <pau...@ou...>]

Problem seems to raise its head on Safari that because of reloading style
sheets the whole system becomes very slow to load one page.  It's a very
real issue and one reason why we're thinking of simplifying the CSS

There are serious bugs in some of the web browsers. (Guess which well known
software house is worst?) In some cases it is absolutely impossible to 
get the
browser to go back to the server and reload a *.css URL.  In the case of 
the user
filtered style sheets this is absolutely intolerable and I put in a 
solution - the name
of the stylesheet actually changes when the users changes options. This
guarantees that the browser loads the new stylesheet on the very next 
page request
so the user can decide to keep or change their options. However, I 
didn't put this
same extra effort into the author style sheet options because it means 
changing the
stylesheet name for all currently logged in users.
