CSS Naked Day
A few years ago, Dustin Diaz started a Web Standards movement aimed to promote web standards around the world. He dubbed it CSS Naked Day! A day when websites around the world strip out their css and show off their for a day.
Last year I hard coded a toggle into my website and totally forgot about it until I just happened to go to my website and find the css was gone. My first reaction was to crap a blue twinkie and wonder what had happened. Then I saw the alert at the top of the page telling me it was CSS Naked Day. Imagine my relief.
This year I decided to create a plugin for Mango Blog that automatically removed the css and added the notification message to tell users that it was css naked day.
- Plugin version:
- 1.0
- Last Updated:

What If I Don't Have Mango Blog
Since not everyone uses mango but may still want to participate in CSS Naked Day with their coldfusion powered blog I thought I would throw in some samples of my code from before the creation of the Mango Plugin. It's really simple but for a CF newbie it might be usefull.
Place this in your <head> and put your css files into it.
<!-- css files here -->
Put this code just inside the <body> tag.
What happened to the design?
