what list said they did it :) using variables in css is it as easy as just putting in a quick <?PHP echo "background: $date"; ?> in the css? or is it more complicated?

you have to configure apache to handle css files as php files. also you have to send headers including content-type set to text/css and then you can script your css greets Zoltán Németh

That's one way. Here's another: http://sperling.com/examples/pcss/ As Zoltán suggested, but didn't elaborate, you can drop a .htaccess file into your root directory that contains: <FilesMatch "\.(css|style)$"> SetHandler application/x-httpd-php </FilesMatch> and then use <?php whatever you want ?> inside the css file. This makes things easier when trying to change constants like colors, or dealing with the box-model problem, or rules that are dependant upon other rules; or really neat automatic image width/height determinations for images on the fly (think about that). :-) There are a lot of opportunities to add functionality to css that apparently has not been addressed in any documentation I've been able to find. I can't be the first down this street, but for certain it hasn't been traveled often. Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
