Text format changing

[DavH27]

Let's say my site as a heading and body text. They both have different formatting. Let's assume the formatting for these are CSS initially. I say assume because the answer to the question might need this to be different.

What I want to do is allow the user to choose what text formatting they want in a control panel. I can easily do this by submitting the info in a form, making the changes in .css file by some fancy means using both different css files and a db. The changes they select should affect a box with 'preview' text in it. The user then clicks a 'save' button which makes these changes to a css.

I don't want the page to reload to show the preview so form submissions are out the window.

I assume this is JavaScript as it is client side. But is it possible?

^ Not exactly what you want, but its along the same lines. (changing the entire page instead of one element)

I think I did something similar in a recent php app where the user did something and I had some javascript change the ID or class of one specific element on the page. I'll see if I can find it.


My google search that might help

Here's a good example. I think that's pretty much what I did.

I haven't looked through it entirely but it looks pretty much what I want! Thanks, man.
