Nope. I think I tried all menu's of IE7 and it doesn't have stylesheet selection support. For those who don't know what I mean:

How do they think they will ever be half as good as firefox if they don't implement functions like this that even Netscape implements already. Yet another reason to Kill Bill's Browser. But how will you explain that to your visitors?
So my point is, IE7 doesn't have stylesheet selection support. What it does have is the security hole to type insanely long javascripts in the url bar.
So this is a stylesheet selection script to bookmark that will work on all standard-complying pages:
Install: just make a new bookmark of any page (in IE7), right-click the bookmark, choose properties, and enter this code in the location field, press ok and press ok again when a security message pops up:
Notes:
• Only known browser this code works in is IE7.
- It uses IE specific functions (which doesn't matter as all other browsers can change the stylesheet without my help)
- Versions of IE below v7 can't handle scripts as long as this in the location bar. They shouldn't. What they should do is implement a stylesheet changer.
• Once IE7 goes public, you should probably ask your visitors to add this link to their favorites instead of making your own style changing script.
They will certainly appreciate the extra functionality your website added to their browser.
I hope this was usefull.
It is to me anyway :p
