Hi Bobby,
Another solution I used to use a lot was an anchor/container system.
When published the CSS would be published as a separate file and
referenced, but in SmartEdit and Preview mode it would be embedded
directly into the HTML. This allowed the CSS to be cached when
published, but avoided MIME-type problems in CMS. The code was
something like:
<reddot:cms>
<if>
<query valuea="Context:CurrentRenderMode" operator="=="
valueb="Int:2">
<!-- Published mode -->
<htmltext>
<style type="text/css" href="<%anc_css%>" />
</htmltext>
</query>
<query type="else">
<!-- Preview or SmartEdit mode -->
<htmltext>
<style type="text/css">
<%con_css%>
</style>
</htmltext>
</query>
</if>
</reddot:cms>
There are pros/cons for keeping the CSS in RedDot or working with it
externally, but if you want to keep it in CSS this was the best way I
found to handle it.
