Is there anyway i can use javascript to detect:
- When a print stylesheet is loaded
- When a print stylesheet is being applied
?

As far as I know, a stylesheet is loaded by the browser,with the datas of the page, depending of the context.
If you have separate stylesheets, the @print will probably not be loaded by your browser. At least, not before you ask for a print preview.

I don't understand why you would detect the loading of a stylesheet anyway.

He means like is there a way so that if someone is using IE it loads a different CSS from FF.

I've saw it done, I'm not sure if it's with PHP or javascript/html mind. If anyone does know it will be useful

Well i've been looking at the loaded part using the firebug extension for firefox. Turns out that the the separate stylesheets are being downloaded at the same time as the other stylesheets.

Now there's the question of when they are being applied. My guess is that it will only be just before someone uses print-preview or print.

How could i monitor an element to see if its style properties change with javascript?
