Sarah
You can actually do a style.php and format it like a document specific
stylesheet but I think you then have trouble validating a stylesheet,
well maybe not it would be included in a page like ?
include('style.php') ;? and it would just look like this in the page:
head tags all up in here
style type=text/css
!--
.classofsomesorts {font-face: Geneva; etc}
--
/style
And when the php file is rendered the databased info and dynamic stuff
is of course not viewable to sneaky source readers.

Sarah Of coure you can do this. There are two posibilities: - - Inline Css, that's the way Brian wrote about, and - - a separate stylesheet, If you use a separate stylesheet, who can use a php document (for ex. style.php) which gets parsed by the webserver, and then just include this file from your main (x)html file.

Actually, if you can set up your webserver to process you CSS files by PHP, it is possible. You just have to output the correct header first. See http://codewalkers.com/tutorials/75/1.html for a good write-up about this.
