[zad_switcher] New release of ZAD Style Switcher

[trinko]

I recently released the new 2.1.0 version of ZAD Style Switcher: this extension adds a style switcher to your website, for example to allow the choice of the font size, or to provide alternative versions of the pages (high contrast, text only, etc.).

Of course, after installed this extension, you have to create the CSS stylesheets to achieve the desired effects.

The main features of this extension are:

• Contao extension standards full compliance;[/*:m:2r8gmssw]
• Server side management of the style switcher, so you do not need to have JavaScript enabled;[/*:m:2r8gmssw]
• Using cookies to store user preferences;[/*:m:2r8gmssw]
• More style switchers on the same page (for example, one to choose font size and one for alternative versions of the page);[/*:m:2r8gmssw]
• No limits for the number of styles handled by a style switcher;[/*:m:2r8gmssw]
• Using an editable template for displaying the style switcher, in XHTML and HTML5 format (there is also the old TPL format for compatibility with Contao versions prior to 2.10.x);[/*:m:2r8gmssw]
• Backend option to choose whether to use a link or a form button (sent by POST method) for selecting styles;[/*:m:2r8gmssw]
• Backend options to choose whether to use a button for each style or just the NEXT/PREVIOUS/DEFAULT buttons (with ordered styles);[/*:m:2r8gmssw]
• If you enable the NEXT or PREVIOUS button, you can choose to use cyclical selection mode: in this case, for example, if the latest style is active and you press the NEXT button then you will go back to the first style;[/*:m:2r8gmssw]
• For each button you can set a title (showed when you hover the button with the mouse), a text label (showed in the button), an image (showed in the button), the tab order and the access key;[/*:m:2r8gmssw]
• For each style you can use a stylesheet managed internally by Contao or any CSS file.[/*:m:2r8gmssw]
