Dynamic css (Server Side)

[FrostbiteXIII]

Is there any way to create dynamic (server side) css?Like a php file that can be linked to css-style?Not that I have tried exactly that, but even if this kinda thing works is it 'proper'?

It's not exactly a good practice, but yes... it's possible.PHP's output can be anything you want, so it doesn't really matter what it looks in the end.Let's say that with a PHP file, you create the CSS file "style.php". When displayed in a browser, it's plain text. Even though this file has a PHP extension, all the browser really cares for is the MIME type, specified in (X)HTML:<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.php" />and/or in the PHP file itself, sent with the header() function:

header("Content-type: text/css")
