i am makeing a theme selection form, user selects a theme and clicks the OK button and there (s)he goes...new theme right there :D

the theme.php page sets a cookie which has theme name on user's computer...that works fine on all version of IE but does't on IE6. that is cos of Screwy MS had a wild idea for useing something called P3P...

how would i set that up and what do i need?

the dtd used for http://anon.inf.tu-dresden.de/p3p_doubleclick.xml (bottom of page) is from w3.org, so I tried http://www.w3.org/P3P/ et voilĂ  there are the specs and a section
The following resources provide information on P3P-enabling a web site:

P3P Implementation Guide - why implement P3P, how does it work, preparing for implementation, creating P3P files
P3P Deployment Guide - contains more technical details on deployment and server configuration than the Implementation Guide
How to Create and Publish Your Company's P3P Policy (in 6 Easy Steps) - a very brief overview
P3PToolbox.org -- features more information about P3P, P3P software, and upcoming P3P implementation workshops
You can use the W3C P3P Validator to make sure your P3P enabled web site is working properly.
