Ok, finally everything works the way i wanted. For those who want a Theme Switcher as well here what i did.
First example: http://multitimes.com/websitekit/

Add this code in red to  index.php file (root)

// Figure out which page to display
// Stop processing if intro page was shown
$wb->page_select() or die();

// get the template to display from URL
if ($_GET['template']!="") {
   if(file_exists(WB_PATH.'/templates/'.$_GET['template'].'/index.php')) {
      define('TEMPLATE',$_GET['template']);
      $_SESSION['TEMPLATE']=TEMPLATE;
    }
}

// get the template to display from Session Variable
else {
    if(isset($_SESSION['TEMPLATE']) AND $_SESSION['TEMPLATE'] != '')
        define('TEMPLATE',$_SESSION['TEMPLATE']);

Create a WB page (i.e. Home) and add this code on top. (change urls)

<script>
var vers = navigator.appVersio n;
var name = navigator.appName;
vers_ie = vers.substring(22,23);
vers_nc = vers.substring(0,1);
if ((name == "Microsoft Internet Explorer" && vers_ie == 5) || (name == "Netscape" && vers_nc == 5)){
function auswahl(link) {
 if(link == "leer") {
   document.forms[0].reset();
  document.forms[0].elements[0].blur();
   return;
 }else {
   location.href = link;
   document.forms[0].reset();
   document.forms[0].elements[0].blur();
  }
 }
}
</script>

<form action="">
                                      <div align="center">
                                        <select size=1 name="Auswahl" onChange="auswahl(this.form.Auswahl.o ptions[this.form.Auswahl.options.selectedIndex].value)" style="width:300px; background-color:#FFFFFF; font-size:16; font-weight:normal; font-family:verdana; Color:#003399;" width="300" class="countriesform">

                        </select>
                                      </div>
                                    </form>

[wwwMARKLEYcouk]

its ok i figured it out.. you missed off a bit of syntax for the index file.. use this instead:

Code:

// get the template to display from URL
if ($_GET['template']!="") {
   if(file_exists(WB_PATH.'/templates/'.$_GET['template'].'/index.php')) {
      define('TEMPLATE',$_GET['template']);
     $_SESSION['TEMPLATE']=TEMPLATE;
   }
}

// get the template to display from Session Variable
else {
   if(isset($_SESSION['TEMPLATE']) AND $_SESSION['TEMPLATE'] != '')
      define('TEMPLATE',$_SESSION['TEMPLATE']);
}

[heth]

brilliant bit of code. I needed this to change font sizes... so I've used text links instead of the form which makes it even simplier!

Thank you sooooooooooooo much

Create a WB page (i.e. Home) and add this code on top. (change urls)

A WYSIWYG page or a code page?  I have had no luck implementing this   

[Vincent]

I struggled over the same thing till I found out that you just have to put it in the WYSIWYG section.
Press the 'Code'-button, since you're inserting html code in your page, which (apart from the form) you don't want to see.

Good luck,

Vincent
