Right, do you mean for a multi-site? Sounds like smart idea to me.

OK, this can be done quite easily in preprocess, pretty sure this variable never changes...

    // Site name class
    if (!empty($vars['head_title_array']['name'])) {
      $vars['classes_array'][] = 'site-name-' . drupal_html_class($vars['head_title_array']['name']);
    }

So this will make a body class as: .site-name-foobarsite

Thoughts?

Hi Jeff - Yes for multisite.

I'm building two sites (one a public site, the other an extranet) that share the same theme. Decided not to use domain module as it tends to un-necessarily complicate life (IMHO unless the actual content is shared).

Your solution sounds great.

The one issue I was concerned with was the class changing between environments (EG: dev.sitename V www.sitename). But then this could actually be quite useful. So perhaps declaring the sitename and the url would be best. then you could effectively style using just the siteName, just the siteURL or with multiselectors (EG: body.sitename.siteurl) if required.

Cheers Jeff ++

I don't want to add the domain class due to performance reasons - the site name is available for free in the $vars array, however the domain name I have to "GET" and will incur the a cost, albeit very small cost its not a commonly used feature, so I am not sure it passes the cost/benefit ratio. I am very weary of performance overhead in this theme because its a large and complex theme, it's easy to get carried away with features. Right now the performance is good, very good actually, so even very small features such as the domain class are coming under scrutiny.
