Answers to frequently asked questions on how to create effects using Javascript.

Stylesheet Switcher

Set up multiple stylesheets for your web page and give your visitors the ability to choose which of the styles that they prefer with this simple Javascript Stylesheet Switcher.

Swapping Content

Do you have a situation where your visitors will need to click on some text in order to perform some processing and you want the text to change when they click on it. When they click a second time the reverse processing is performed and you want the text to change back. Well a simple function added to the onclick event handler can easily add that for you.

Inline Tips

Some people prefer that additional details about a term or link on their web page be displayed inline after the link instead of hovering over the page in its own box.

Selecting Colour Combination

When designing your web site you need to choose several colours that don't clash or blend into one another so that the page is clear and readable. This colour selector allows you to enter the codes for three colours and shows you what they look like together as text, background, and border.
