Style Sheet Wont Change

needphp

I need to make the following script change style sheets when some body clicks the printer friendly link here is the script below but for some reason it wont work it just keeps loading the same style sheet.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html>
<HEAD>
<TITLE> New Document </TITLE>

<?php
if($mode == 'print') $stylesheet = 'print.css';
else $stylesheet = 'style.css';
echo '<link rel="stylesheet" href="'.$stylesheet.'" type="text/css" />';
?>
</HEAD>

<BODY>

<a href="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'&mode=print'; ?>" title="" id="print"><img src="printer.gif" alt="" width="20" height="23" />Print</a>

<p>some random text</p>
</BODY>
</HTML>

do a echo($mode) to see where the problem is

It might be as simple as wrongly using $mode instead of $_GET['mode'].

Why not simply set the media type of the stylesheet - it is there to do exactly what you are trying to do.
