You can also do almost the same thing with PHP just do the following:
<?php
$variable="do your declarations here";
$bg="#fff"
$h1=100;
$w1="20em";
header('Content-Type: text/css');
echo "
html{
color:#123;
background:$bg;
}
#header{
height:{$h1}px;
width:$w1;
}
";
?>
note that it's important that there are double quotes on the echo and
not single.
