There are several ways to unload CSS and JS scripts that have already been applied by using Javascript or JQuery. To unload CSS is simpler than JS because for JS it depends on whether the JS has been triggered and if it has already altered the DOM with it' payload, because once the DOM is altered, disabling the JS might not return the DOM it to it's original state, if that is not a problem do not worry.

General Notes

You must follow the rules below:

• Use the full filepath to the file when using href
• Make sure there is a slash at the beginning of a href statement when using a file path, i.e. all file paths except when you are using just the filename. I could not get my script to work withou the slash at the begining.
• When working with jQuery in Joomla you must use jQuery() instead of $()

Depending on what type of scripting language you use, Javascript/JQuery, to unload the CSS or JS there are different ways of referencing the elements.

You can access the relevant element by:

• Physical file path
• href location of the file
• Stylesheet/Script name
• Numeric occurance of a tag type (ie the 3rd occurance of the <link> tag)
• element id - If this is set

Identifiers

These are different identifiers you can use in the following codes to basically identify which file or element you want to work on. There might be more and should be easy to experiment with:

• [href="fileToRemove.css"]  -  Match the file fileToRemove.css , the file needs to be in the same directory as the script
• [href="/templates/jsn_time_pro/ext/k2/jsn_ext_k2.css"]  -  Match the file /templates/jsn_time_pro/ext/k2/jsn_ext_k2.css
• [href*='baz']  -  href has some code in it, and then baz (not checked this)
• [href~="foo.com"]  -  This matches all href with foo.com anywhere in it (not checkedd this)
• [title="mystyle"]  -  The element title is mystyle
• [src="<path>"]  -  A file that has this filepath (obviously swap <path> for the file path)
• [id="disableme"]  -  The element's id is disableme

The points at which I can activate the unload script:

• An inline script
• 'On Page Load' trigger
• After the target CSS or JS has loaded as an external script
• On 'DOM ready' trigger

If using jQuery you must run the script after you load the jQuery library.

JQuery Solution

Although these are all written for CSS, the commands should work for Javascript script calls. These scripts will not run unless they are run after the page has loaded the JQuery library.

" and ' can be interchanged but i prefer to use " for normal HTML declarations. This keeps things easy to understand.

These changes will be applied to the DOM so when you are looking at the source of the page you might not see them, it depends on the browser. If in doubt use the Web Developer Toolbar in Firefox and select View Generated Source and you will see the source code with all changes applied by the javascript.

It is important to use .prop, not .attr. If you use .attr, the code will work in some browsers, but not Firefox. This is because, according to MDN, disabled is a property of the HTMLLinkElement DOM object, but not an attribute of the link HTML element. Using disabled as an HTML attribute is nonstandard.

Disable CSS

$('link[href="mycustom.css"]').prop('disabled', true);

This will disable the mycustom.css although for most purposes the CSS file has been removed, but this CSS file can be re-enabled. When you look at the generated souce you will see that the link for mycustom.css is still present butthe styling is not applied.

Re-Enable CSS

$('link[href="mycustom.css"]').prop('disabled', false);

Re-enable a mycustom.css CSS file.

Remove CSS

$('link[href="mycustom.css"]').remove();

This will completely remove the the mycustom.css from the DOM, the page will need to be refreshed without this script on it to load the CSS file. when you look at the generated source code you will see a blank line where the mycustom.css link use to be, almost like a placeholder.

Insert CSS

$('head').append('<link href="/mycustom.css" rel="stylesheet" id="newcss" />');

This command will insert the mycustom.css CSS file into the header. The id="newcss" is optional but can be useful.

Insert CSS 2

This is another version to insert a CSS file from - How to load CSS stylesheets dynamically with jQuery | Vidal Quevedo

$('head').append($('<link rel="stylesheet" href="/mycustom.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />'));

This command will insert the mycustom.css CSS file into the header. The instructions are simple and well layed out but I dont know why there is a second $().

Remove a CSS file from Joomla via an Inline Script

joomla has JQuery inbuilt which makes things easier

I have the need to remove a CSS file (jsn_ext_k2.css) from joomla on a single page but without altering any core code or extension. So I will need to do this by an inline script as i do not want to load the script site wide.

noConflict()

Joomla runs JQuery in noConflict() mode because it uses other libraries so instead of calling a function with a $() you should use jQuery() , make note of the capitalised Q.

Joomla loads the noConflict() from http://yoour-joomla-site.com/media/jui/js/jquery-noconflict.js

If you do not use the correct format for the jQuery function you are likely to see either of the following errors:

• TypeError: $(...) is null
• TypeError: $(...).ready is not a function

The CSS is called by the following:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/templates/jsn_time_pro/ext/k2/jsn_ext_k2.css" type="text/css" />

I have removed the CSS file by using the following inline code:

<script type="text/javascript">
	jQuery('link[href="/templates/jsn_time_pro/ext/k2/jsn_ext_k2.css"]').remove();
</script>

This Also works but by disabling the CSS file

<script type="text/javascript">
	jQuery('link[href="/templates/jsn_time_pro/ext/k2/jsn_ext_k2.css"]').prop('disabled', true);
</script>

Things i have used:

• The full relative path
• A slash at the beginning of the relative path, without it, the script will not remove the CSS
• jQuery() instead of $()
• .remove() because I do not need the CSS file anymore

Code Examples

Unload CSS from webpage - Stack Overflow

document.getElementsByTagName('link')[0].disabled = true;

• This references the first link element by its position (i.e. 0)

$("link[href='fileToRemove.css']").remove();

• This references the stylesheet by its name which is better and more precise
• Obviously, replace fileToRemove.css with the relative path and filename of the file to be unloaded.
• I had to put the filename in quotes to make it work e.g. $("link[href='test.css']").remove();
• If you don't want to put the path, you can add a * before equal sign. $("link[href*='fileToRemove.css']").remove();

var firstLink = document.getElementsByTagName('link')[0];
firstLink.parentNode.removeChild(firstLink)

• This would remove the first link element on the page - not sure how your html is structured but I'm sure you can use it as an example. You might want to check the type attribute if it's 'text/css' and you're targeting the right media (screen), or possibly check if the href contains 'css' anywhere if you have other link elements that aren't css references.
• Note you can also re-set the href attribute to point to a non-existing page instead of removing the element entirely.
• It's uncommon to see the id attribute set on the link element but I'm sure for this exact purpose the OP would probably want to, less parsing and dealing with multiple link elements.

How to unload a css file using only its filename? - Stack Overflow

I have a css file in my <head> tag, defined as follows:

<link href="/foo/bar/baz.css" rel="stylesheet" class="lazyload" type="text/css">

I want to be able to remove this css file dynamically, from the javascript. However, at runtime, I won't have the full href available, only the baz.css part (That's because the file is hosted at a CDN, and the url can be dynamically generated / different each time, so it can't be hard-coded).

$("link[href*='baz']").prop('disabled', true);
$("link[href*='baz']").remove();

Removing or replacing a stylesheet (a <link>) with JavaScript/jQuery - Stack Overflow

To cater for ie you have to set the stylesheet to be disabled as it keeps the css styles in memory so removing the element will not work, it can also cause it to crash in some instances if I remember correctly.

This also works for cross browser.

document.styleSheets[0].disabled = true;

//so in your case using jquery try

$('link[title=mystyle]')[0].disabled=true;

These days, the "jQuery way" would look like

$('link[title=mystyle]').prop('disabled',true);

I managed to do it with:

$('link[title="mystyle"]').attr('disabled', 'disabled');

it seems this is the only way to remove the styles from memory. then I added:

$('link[title="mystyle"]').remove();

to remove the element too.

To disable your selected stylesheet:

$('link[title="mystyle"]').prop('disabled', true);

If you never want that stylesheet to be applied again, you can then .remove() it. But don’t do that if you want to be able to re-enable it later.

To re-enable the stylesheet, do this (as long as you didn’t remove the stylesheet’s element):

$('link[title="mystyle"]').prop('disabled', false);

In the code above, it is important to use .prop, not .attr. If you use .attr, the code will work in some browsers, but not Firefox. This is because, according to MDN, disabled is a property of the HTMLLinkElement DOM object, but not an attribute of the link HTML element. Using disabled as an HTML attribute is nonstandard.

To remove a stylesheet:

$('link[src="<path>"]').remove();

To Replace a stylesheet:

$('link[src="<path>"]').attr('src','<NEW_FILE_PATH>');

no jQuery solution

if you can add id to your link tag

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/animations.css" id="styles-animations">

document.getElementById("styles-animations").disabled = true;

if you know index position of your css file in document

document.styleSheets[0].disabled = true; // first
document.styleSheets[document.styleSheets.length - 1].disabled = true; // last

if you want to disable style by name you can use this function

/**
 * @param [string]  [styleName] [filename with suffix e.g. "style.css"]
 * @param [boolean] [disabled]  [true disables style]
 */
var disableStyle = function(styleName, disabled) {
    var styles = document.styleSheets;
    var href = "";
    for (var i = 0; i < styles.length; i++) {
        href = styles[i].href.split("/");
        href = href[href.length - 1];

        if (href === styleName) {
            styles[i].disabled = disabled;
            break;
        }
    }
};

note: make sure style file name is unique so you don't have "dir1/style.css" and "dir2/style.css". In that case it would disable only first style.

Removing the CSS file - Stack Overflow

Give an id to the <link> tag.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/style1.css" id="style1" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/style2.css" id="style2" />

And use this code:

$("#A").click(function(){
    $("#style1").attr("disabled", "disabled");
});

Note: While there is no disabled attribute in the HTML standard, there is a disabled attribute on the HTMLLinkElement DOM object.

The use of disabled as an HTML attribute is non-standard and only used by some Microsoft browsers. Do not use it. To achieve a similar effect, use one of the following techniques:

• If the disabled attribute has been added directly to the element on the page, do not include the <link> element instead;
• Set the disabled property of the DOM object via scripting.

You can unload a css by disabling it as follows:

$("#A").click(function(){
    $("link[href*=bb.css]").attr("disabled", "disabled");
    $("link[href*=cc.css]").attr("disabled", "disabled");
    $("link[href*=aa.css]").removeAttr("disabled");
});

How to dynamically remove a stylesheet from the current page - Stack Overflow

Is there a way to dynamically remove the current stylesheet from the page?

For example, if a page contains:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://..." />

Assuming you can target it with jQuery it should be just as simple as calling remove() on the element:

$('link[rel=stylesheet]').remove();

That will remove all external stylesheets on the page. If you know part of the url then you can remove just the one you're looking for:

$('link[rel=stylesheet][href~="foo.com"]').remove();

According to this question, just removing the link element is not enough. You should make it disabled first, with .prop('disabled', true). Though it’s possible that browsers have changed since that question was written (2010), and you don’t need to disable the link

If you know the ID of the stylesheet

use the following. Any other method of getting the stylesheet works as well, of course. This is straight DOM and doesn't require using any libraries.

sheet = document.getElementById(styleSheetId)
sheet.parentNode.removeChild(sheet)

Once the Client has approved the transfer with their loosing registrar they will be presented with the following message confirming the transfer will now go ahead and that they will be transfered to the registrar, in this case eNom.

To transfer out a domain (which is not a .co.uk) you need to supply your client with an EPP code which they then give to their new registrar. When you click the Get EPP Code button in WHMCS you get the following message:

The client will now receive a valid EPP code for the relevant domain. This EPP code will expire it is either valid for 24hr, 48hr or 7 days but I am not sure which.

These transfers will use an EPP code to facilitate the transfer of a domain between registrars and is quite safe.

Incoming Transfers

Answer ID 246 - How to Initiate an Incoming Domain Transfer?

Prepare Domain for Transfer at the Current Registrar

To transfer a domain into our system, you will need to do three things on the current registrar's system (for most domain extensions):

• Unlock the domain by disabling Registrar-Lock.
• Verify that the registrant and administrative contacts on the domain are current and valid.  You may also want to disable ID Protect if it's enabled, as this will make the transfer process easier.
• Obtain the authorization (EPP) code.

Please note that some domain extensions don't use Registrar-Lock or authorization codes.  For example, .eu domains only use email verification for transfers, and don't need to be unlocked or have an authorization code submitted for the transfer.  If you are having trouble completing any of the above steps, please search our knowledgebase for specifics on the domain extension that you are trying to transfer, or submit us a ticket with your request.

For specific instructions on how to complete the above steps in the current registrar's system, please see our Domain Name Transfer Help Section.

For specific on .UK transfers, please see the article, Answer ID 362 - How to Transfer a .UK Domain?

Submit the Incoming Transfer Order through Your Account with Us

Once you have the necessary information, please do the following to submit the incoming transfer request in our system:

• Log into your account.
• Select the menu option Domains > Transfer Domains > Transfer a Domain
• In most cases, you'll want to choose the Auto-Verification (email) method.  If you're transferring a large volume of domains, you may want to select the Fax option.  For further details, please see the article, How does the INCOMING domain FAX transfer process work?.
• Click Next.
• Enter the domain name(s) in the appropriate format, which is demonstrated in the examples on the page.
• Set the desired settings:
  • Registrar-Lock: If enabled, this prevents the domain from being transferred away once it's in your account.
  • Auto-Renew: If enabled, our system will automatically attempt to renew the domain 30 days prior to expiration.
  • Apply WhoIs Info: If enabled, the whois information at the time of transfer will be applied to the domain.  If disabled, the system will apply the contact information that you provided when the order was created.
  • Domain Password: Setting this password will allow you to log into the domain control at http://access.enom.com.  This is an optional control panel.
• Follow any additional prompts that are displayed.
• Click Submit Order.

If you're using the Auto-Verification method, in most cases, either our system or the registry will send you an email to approve or reject the transfer.  Once you respond affirmatively to the email, the transfer process will go forward.

For information on transfer timeframes, please see the article, Transfers - Timeframe to complete.

Transfer restrictions and additional information

For information on transfer restrictions, please see the article, Reasons a transfer could be rejected.

If your domain expired and you renewed it with your current registrar during the expiration grace period, you may want to wait until 46 days after the expiration date to transfer your domain to avoid losing one year of registration.  Please see this article for further details: Transfers - extra year missing after transfer completed.

Outgoing Transfers

Answer ID 234 - How to Initiate an Outgoing Domain Transfer?

Transferring your domain to another registrar is different than changing your nameservers, or "transferring your domain to your hosting company."  Please see the article, How to change domain nameservers (DNS) for further information.  Please give us a call or submit us a ticket if you have any questions.

Transfer Requirements

If you choose to work with a different registrar and need to transfer your domain registration away from us, you will need to do three things on our system (for most domain extensions):

• Unlock the domain by disabling Registrar-Lock.
• Verify that the registrant and administrative contacts on the domain are current and valid.  You may also want to disable ID Protect if it's enabled, as this will make the transfer process easier.
• Email the authorization (EPP) code to yourself.

Please note that some domain extensions don't use Registrar-Lock or authorization codes.  For example, .eu domains only use email verification for transfers, and don't need to be unlocked or have an authorization code submitted for the transfer.  For such domain extensions, the below instructions may not be entirely applicable.  If this is the case, please search our knowledgebase for specifics on the domain extension that you are trying to transfer, or submit us a ticket with your request.

Transfer Steps

• To unlock a domain, please follow the instructions in the article, How to enable or disable Registrar-Lock (clientTransferProhibited) status.
• To verify or modify the registrant and administrative email addresses, please see the article, Do you list my contact information publicly on my domain? How can I change the WHOIS on my domain?

For information on transfer timeframes, please see the article, Transfers - Timeframe to complete.

Transfer restrictions and additional information

For information on transfer restrictions, please see the article, Reasons a transfer could be rejected.

If your domain expired and you renewed it with us during the expiration grace period, you will want to wait until 46 days after the expiration date to transfer your domain to avoid losing one year of registration.  Please see this article for further details: Transfers - extra year missing after transfer completed. If your domain auto renews while in pending transfer status, the transfer will be cancelled. Therefore it is recommended that the auto-renewal setting be disabled prior to transfer. Enable/Disable Auto Renew for Domains

Note: eNom's DNS services are provided at no cost while your domain is registered with eNom. If your domain is utilizing our DNS services, and is transferred away to another registrar, you would need to purchase DNS hosting.  Your domain will not continue to resolve to our name servers once it has been transferred away from the eNom credential and marked as transferred away within our database.

If you do not have a direct account with us please contact your reseller to obtain this information.  If you do not know the name of your reseller, please see the instructions in the article, Who is my reseller?.

How do I transfer a .co.uk or .org.uk domain? What is involved in a .co.uk or .org.uk transfer?

Please note that .UK domains don't use authorization codes (EPP).

These instructions are based on Answer ID 362 - How to Transfer a .UK Domain?

Incoming Transfers

Transferring .UK domains into our system is a two step process.  Please do the following:

1. Follow the instructions in the article,  How to Initiate an Incoming Domain Transfer, starting with the section, "Submit the Incoming Transfer Order through Your Account with Us."  Choose the Auto-Verification method. You can also intiate the process through WHMCS which is easier. You do this by creating a new order and selecting transfer.
   
   What you see in eNom control panel once you have started the transfer from your end.
   
2. Contact the current registrar and request that they change the IPS TAG on your domain to ENOM.
   
   What you see in eNom control panel when they have changed the IPS tag and eNom has updated
   

It does not matter the order in which the steps are completed, however, if you initiate the transfer with eNom first, you must submit the request to the losing registrar within one week.  If initiating the request to the losing registrar first, you must initiate your transfer with eNom by either the 8th of current month or the 8th of the following month, whichever is closest to the current date.

What fees are involved?

At the time the transfer order is submitted in our system, we will reserve funds for the 2 year renewal price.  The registry requires 2 year renewals for applicable transfers.  There are two possible scenarios:

• The domain has more than 3 months remaining on the domain expiration.  In this case, the domain will not be renewed, and the transfer will be FREE.  Our system still reserves the funds for a 2 year renewal, but releases them once the transfer completes.
• The domain is within 3 months or less of its expiration date.  In this case, the domain will be renewed for 2 years upon transfer and a charge for renewal will be made.

For further information on the reservation of funds, please see the article, INCOMING Domain Transfers - Are there fees if the transfer fails?.

For current transfer prices, please see the article, What prices do you charge for domain names and services? Where can I view my pricing?.

Outgoing Transfers

Transferring .UK domains away from our system is a two step process. Please do the following:

• In your account, under your domain's General Settings, you are now able to retag your domain yourself.  For a complete list of IPS TAG holders, please go to http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/becomeregistrar/taglist/.  If your domain is not in an account, please transfer it in for fastest results.  See the above section for related fees.
• Initiate the transfer on the gaining registrar's system.

It does not matter the order in which the steps are completed, however, if you initiate the transfer with the gaining registrar first, you must submit the ticket within one week.  If submitting the TAG change request with us first, you must initiate your transfer with the gaining registrar by either the 8th of current month or the 8th of the following month, whichever is closest to the current date.

Notes

• Transferring out .UK domains | Enom
  • The standard method to transfer domain names does not apply to .UK domain extensions. Instead, these domains must have their IPS tag updated and the registrar lock disabled.
  • If the domain has expired, you need to contact support to update the tag.
• Preparing your domain for transfer | Enom - No matter how you have registered your domain, the required steps to prepare your domain for transfer are the same, with the exception of .UK domain transfers.
• Enabling domain management at access.enom.com | Enom
  • The Enom Access domain management portal is a helpful tool that allows a domain to be managed efficiently by your customers.
  • In the Access domain management portal, you can make changes to various DNS services, such as host records management, MX records access and nameservers, and update the registrant WHOIS information.
  • Can only be used when domains are not expired.
  • You can enable this via the domains record in admin under 'General Settings'
• I have an expired domain that a client wants to transfer away from Enom to their new provider. (Answers from Enom Chat)
  
  • The ability for clients to manage their own domain via access.enom.com is disabled when the domain is expired.
• Expired Common
  
  • If I renew a domain (.uk/.com) here at Enom and then transfer them out within 1 year, am I correct that the additional year that was added will be removed when the domain lands at the remote registrar?
    • If a domain expires, is renewed during the grace period, and then transferred between registrars within 45 days of being renewed, the gaining registrar will charge for the transfer, but no additional year will be added.
  • Can I transfer to the remote registrar whilst the domain is expired (.uk/.com) and the year would be added and kept?
    • Yes. If you transfer while the domain is expired, the winning registrar charges for the transfer and adds the year to the domain name.
    • With Expired domains in your Enom account, you need supports assistance, to get the EPP codes (sometimes) and IPS Tags updated via chat.
    • Enom only charge for registrations, renewals and Transfer INs
• Expired .UK domains
  • Can only have their IPS tag changed by Enom and this is done by contacting them through chat.
• Expired .COM domains
  • Can still have their EPP code generated through the reseller admin control panel.
  • The ability to generate EPP might be available at access.enom.com for the client.
  • Reseller/Client can only generate the EPP code if they are early enough, perhaps upto 30 days after expiration when it goes into retention.
