got it to work, but i would rather switch templates tried to change the .php but the stylesheets are called 2 ways css and style,
$prefix.
this is what i have so far... not sure how to call the templates... tried tpl and template
What does this module do?
It provides an interface for users to switch templates. The templates it uses are the selection of additive templates that are located under Content > templates.
How should I use it?
There are two ways to integrate this page into the front end, both represent themselves as standard tags, so you use {cms_module module=\"templateswitcher\"} with any of the arguments below.
What parameters are there?
There are a couple of tunable parameters:
use_javascript [true|false] Set this templateswitcher to use AJAX in compliant browsers. not implemented yet
format [selector|summary|summary_link|link] This can have three valid values: 'selector' will display a page content that allows a user to select a selection of page templates (ie more than one). 'summary' displays a smaller drop down that is suitable for inline display ('summary_link' displays the same drop down with a link to a copy of the output from 'selector'). 'link' provides a link to a page containing 'selector'
