For IE only, you can use Microsoft's proprietary "expression" extension to
execute JavaScript from the stylesheet, e.g.:
div#header
{
width: expression("window.clientWidth / 2");
}
Use of expression() is currently* an IE-only filter, e.g.:
div#blob
{
width: 100px; /* all browsers */
width: expression("98px"); /* IE only */
}
* If other browsers incorporate expression() in the future, this hack will
obviously fail to pinpoint IE.

Does anyone know any neat code [JScript/CSS - not PHP] that can randomly

Which makes me wonder - will a browser call and execute javascript if
it's contained within, or linked from, a CSS file?
I certainly hope not, as CSS can't contain JS, and there is no mechanism
in CSS to link to a JS file.
The javascript would need to be called from the (X)HTML, of course...
