Hi, What I do is a combo. Each theme contains a url with the different
variables that are used in the theme.

So, I style the different parts of the page using markup like:

<div class="ui-widget">
<div class="ui-widget-header">Header</div>
<div class="ui-widget-content"><p>...</p></div>

On top of this i use the themereader[1] class to extract the template
variables and add them into a separate template.css file. Like this:


        $tr = new themereader(dirname(__FILE__) .
"/css/jquery-ui-1.7.custom.css");
        //print_r($tr->getVars()); <-- gives you the vars of the template
        $tr->setTemplate($this->base . "css/template.css");
        $outFile = '/var/www/vhosts/www.mysite.com/css/generated.css';
        $tr->writeCssFile($outFile);

I call the above in the buildscript I use when I publish my site.


Hope this helps someone :)

Regards,
Tarjei
