I made a bookmarklet that does the same thing. I call it Webmasters Nightmare. :)

It works with all Javascript browsers except IE.

Block >> Object, Embed, Iframe, Images, Applet

javascript:(function(){var%20newSS,%20styles=’:link%20{text-decoration:underline%20!important;%20color:blue%20!important;}%20:visited%20{text-decoration:underline%20!important;%20color:purple%20!important;}%20object,embed,iframe,applet,img%20{display:none%20!important;}%20*%20{font-weight:900%20!important;%20background-image:none%20!important;%20background-color:white%20!important;}%20p,span,li,address,td,div,font%20{color:black%20!important;}’;%20if(document.createStyleSheet)%20{%20document.createStyleSheet(%22javascript:’%22+styles+%22′%22);%20}%20else%20{%20newSS=document.createElement(‘link’);%20newSS.rel=’stylesheet’;%20newSS.href=’data:text/css,’+escape(styles);%20document.getElementsByTagName(%22head%22)[0].appendChild(newSS);%20}%20})();

Not sure what I meant by “match”, but you get the point. :)

It’s a great add-on for cleaning up (what I call) page noise when the primary content is text.
It works great with Wikipedia.

xar,
The Readability add-on allows users to mix and match styles and selections are applied instantly.

You can have different styles if you get the bookmarklet from here:
