I may have read the original post wrong, but I think the concept was generating CSS on the fly to tailor a page. In this case, it would probably be better to embed the CSS into the actual page. I have found that some browsers will cache a CSS include which would preclude you just generating a CSS file each time. However, you can reference any normal URL (including a server-side script) to get the CSS (as long as your headers are correct) and you can then "tailor" the caching in the header returned. Having said all of that, the issues that others have raised in terms of the benefits of caching CSS on the client machine apply. But, if you wanted it to be "dynamic" then, by definition, you DONT want it to be cached on the client machine - because it may not be the same the next time. You still can separate the CSS from the content though, using server-side scripting.
