Can you change the layout colors based on category??

Hi all,

I was wondering if it's possible when you are click in different categories to change the color theme?

For example I have a category for blue and red products. When I click blue I want to change the "theme" to blue, and same with red. To take it a step further, can you swap the header image as someone changes categories?

Thank you :)

No problem...hope it helps achieve requirements..

Just reading as this will be needed by myself very soon and many others i am sure.

Can this be added as a tutorial / addon / module / ?

I only ask as its quite a nice tweek and would be used by the masses.

Link given in my earlier post explains exactly how to achieve..
too simple to create mod..you have a category number 2.
create stylesheet for that category, using different colours, images, text etc...
name this stylesheet c_2.css.. upload
to current template's stylesheet folder...category number 3..
exactly same as above but name stylesheet c_3.css, upload as before..
done..

A note re Misty's first suggestion: The category stylesheet method is described in post 10 of the referenced thread, not post 4.

And it is also fully explained in the file CSS_read_me.txt in the css folder. But then, nobody ever reads readmes. :P
