I usually include a "do-it-yourself" theme design page in my perl web-applications. On this page the user can choose the colors, by clicking on a color sample, and fonts of the menus, table headers, table data, or whatever I choose to be user setable.
I store the settings in a cookie which I read and apply when they load a page.
I guess that isn't really what this quest is all about, but it saves me a lot of job and the users will benefit (or face the concequences) of their personal taste.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
