To begin, open 'Settings' and select 'General'. Then, go to 'Accessibility' and go to 'Display accommodations'. Now, enable the 'Classic invert' option to invert the colours.
CSS allows you to invert the color of an HTML element by using the invert() CSS function that you can pass to the filter property. Because the default color of the text is black, the color is inverted into white with filter: invert(100%) syntax.
To get the inverted colour we first deduct the red part from 255, which leaves 0. To get the green part we deduct 182 from 255 which is 73. To get the blue part we deduct 193 from 255, which is 62. So the new inverted colour is RGB(0, 73, 62), which is a sort of green/blue colour.
Answer: Use the JavaScript style property You can easily change the background color of a webpage i.e. the <body> element or any other element dynamically by using its style property in JavaScript.
First things first, grab the awesome RGBColor
class here.
Here goes:
//set up color properties to iterate through
var colorProperties = ['color', 'background-color'];
//iterate through every element in reverse order...
$("*").get().reverse().each(function() {
var color = null;
for (var prop in colorProperties) {
prop = colorProperties[prop];
//if we can't find this property or it's null, continue
if (!$(this).css(prop)) continue;
//create RGBColor object
color = new RGBColor($(this).css(prop));
if (color.ok) {
//good to go, let's build up this RGB baby!
//subtract each color component from 255
$(this).css(prop, 'rgb(' + (255 - color.r) + ', ' + (255 - color.g) + ', ' + (255 - color.b) + ')');
}
color = null; //some cleanup
}
});

EDIT: Here's a bookmarklet you can now copy-paste into your browser (http://jsfiddle.net/F7HqS/1/)
javascript:function load_script(src,callback){var s=document.createElement('script');s.src=src;s.onload=callback;document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(s);}function invertColors(){var colorProperties=['color','background-color'];$('*').each(function(){var color=null;for(var prop in colorProperties){prop=colorProperties[prop];if(!$(this).css(prop))continue;color=new RGBColor($(this).css(prop));if(color.ok){$(this).css(prop,'rgb('+(255-color.r)+','+(255-color.g)+','+(255-color.b)+')');}color=null;}});}load_script('http://www.phpied.com/files/rgbcolor/rgbcolor.js',function(){if(!window.jQuery)load_script('https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.4/jquery.min.js',invertColors);else invertColors();});
My solution seems to work only for Chrome right now, but it inverts everything (including images and iframes) as seen here:
Also it does not make use of external libraries and is very simple: adding a -webkit-filter: invert(100%)
to the html
-selector.
javascript: (
function () {
// the css we are going to inject
var css = 'html {-webkit-filter: invert(100%);' +
'-moz-filter: invert(100%);' +
'-o-filter: invert(100%);' +
'-ms-filter: invert(100%); }',
head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0],
style = document.createElement('style');
// a hack, so you can "invert back" clicking the bookmarklet again
if (!window.counter) { window.counter = 1;} else { window.counter ++;
if (window.counter % 2 == 0) { var css ='html {-webkit-filter: invert(0%); -moz-filter: invert(0%); -o-filter: invert(0%); -ms-filter: invert(0%); }'}
};
style.type = 'text/css';
if (style.styleSheet){
style.styleSheet.cssText = css;
} else {
style.appendChild(document.createTextNode(css));
}
//injecting the css to the head
head.appendChild(style);
}());
Here's the fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/nikita_turing/jVKw6/3/ with the bookmarklet included. If someone has an idea of how to make it work for Firefox (SVG-Filters?), go ahead!
I cleaned up the comments from one of the answers (by leosok) above, so it will work as a bookmarklet in chrome. Note that this solution is more efficient than the current highest-point here, plus it works even if the html changes after you run the script.
javascript:(function () {
var css = 'html {-webkit-filter: invert(100%);' + '-moz-filter: invert(100%);' + '-o-filter: invert(100%);' + '-ms-filter: invert(100%); }';
var head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];
var style = document.createElement('style');
if (!window.counter) {
window.counter = 1;
} else {
window.counter++;
if (window.counter % 2 == 0) {
var css = 'html {-webkit-filter: invert(0%); -moz-filter: invert(0%); -o-filter: invert(0%); -ms-filter: invert(0%); }'
}
}
style.type = 'text/css';
if (style.styleSheet) {
style.styleSheet.cssText = css;
} else {
style.appendChild(document.createTextNode(css));
}
head.appendChild(style);
}());
One line for bookmarklet. create a bookmark, then edit the url to this:
javascript:(function () { var css = 'html {-webkit-filter: invert(100%);' + '-moz-filter: invert(100%);' + '-o-filter: invert(100%);' + '-ms-filter: invert(100%); }'; var head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0]; var style = document.createElement('style'); if (!window.counter) { window.counter = 1; } else { window.counter++; if (window.counter % 2 == 0) { var css = 'html {-webkit-filter: invert(0%); -moz-filter: invert(0%); -o-filter: invert(0%); -ms-filter: invert(0%); }' } } style.type = 'text/css'; if (style.styleSheet) { style.styleSheet.cssText = css; } else { style.appendChild(document.createTextNode(css)); } head.appendChild(style); }());
The accepted answer is totally correct, with one minor flaw. Each time you toggle the invert it adds ANOTHER style tag to the head. Do this instead
// the css we are going to inject
let css = 'html {-webkit-filter: invert(100%);' +
'-moz-filter: invert(100%);' +
'-o-filter: invert(100%);' +
'-ms-filter: invert(100%); }';
let head = $('head')[0];
let invertStyle = $('#invert')[0];
if (invertStyle) {
head.removeChild(invertStyle);
} else {
let style = document.createElement('style');
style.type = 'text/css';
style.id = 'invert';
if (style.styleSheet){
style.styleSheet.cssText = css;
} else {
style.appendChild(document.createTextNode(css));
}
//injecting the css to the head
head.appendChild(style);
}
That way you simply remove the tag if you want to undo your invert. Works great!
