choose one of two CSS print media files

I want to allow a user to select a report format to print from a web page
(each containing different portions of the information diplayed.)
I suppose they will need to be able to apply one of two different CSS print
media files that define the reports.What is the best way to accomplish this?
(javascript?)

AListApart also has this article about building a PHP swapper. If you have PHP
at your disposal you might want to consider using it.

Its nice because its truely reverse compatible, the user doesn't have to have
javascipt turned-on for it to work, and also you only need to add a few lines
of code to your page. I've got it installed on my web site (in my footer) if
you want to see it in action.
