           Summary: Disabling a 'style' element through DOM doesn't reload
                    the style sheet
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
               URL: http://www.arcrachatcredits.org
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: CSS
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: mitch074 at gmail.com


Probably related to bug 14586.

Webkit doesn't populate document.styleSheets with stylesheets other than the
default/preferred one (no way to access alternate stylesheets for example), so
there is no way to use a Javascript stylesheet switcher. The following methods
don't work:

 - inserting a new stylesheet through Javascript then enabling it
 - disabling the preferred stylesheet
 - enabling an alternate stylesheet
 - disabling (as in, object.disabled=true) the (X)HTML element that loads the
preferred stylesheet (STYLE or LINK tags)

Untested: deleting the DOM node instead of merely disabling it

Test case:

http://www.arcrachatcredits.org

This website disables the stylesheet 'style-vert-css2.css' loaded through a
STYLE tag in the head if the document's body is smaller than 640x400 (and
re-enables it if resized above said resolution).

The test case works on Firefox 2.0 to 3.7a5pre, IE 7 (real and emulated) to 9,
Opera 10.10.

It doesn't work in Konqueror 4.2, Chromium 5.0.339, Chrome 4.1.249.1045, Safari
4.0.5 (531.22.7).
