I want to semi-permanently (temporarily but it lasts past a refresh or following a link) browse without CSS in IE6. There doesn't appear to be a way to permanently disable CSS without messing with the registry. Can I make a local style sheet that sets all styles to none, for example, and effectively "turns off" css while i browse? What would I need to include? Thanks.

You have the following options (that i am aware of)

  1. http://www.kintek.com.au/web-design-blog/bookmarklet-to-inject-yahoo-reset-css-into-any-page/
  2. Install IE developer toolbar
  3. Use firefox which support this natively (and without css it renders the same in all browsers..)

3 is the only one that will persist after reloads..

Looks like at least 3 options (thought it would be easier!):

  • registry hack
  • Accessibility options dialog, though it doesn't completely remove it
  • View->Source, edit html and redisplay locally.

Quoting from the page, since it seems to be the most robust solution:

...the ability to disable style sheets was removed from internet properties...To work around this issue, use Registry Editor to open the following registry key...

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\internet Explorer\Main

To disable the use of style sheets, add a string value to the above registry key called > "Use StyleSheets" and set it to no.
