In fact, I chickened out and used the IMG tag solution. however....
My web host uses PHP as a CGI module, I think, therefore, that it only
handles files with .php extension?

Stephen,
Several options actually are available on the PHP side.
-- you CAN script the CSS to select the appropriate background image.
-- multiple css files, use php to call the appropriate one.
I have an example available if you're interested.

Subject: [WSG] Dynamic Styles - Inline? What?
One site that I'm currently coding (http://www.minimology.co.uk/everest)
uses some simple PHP to manage a few dynamic elements on the pages.
One of these elements (will be | is) 2 Sponsors logos at the top of each
page which will go into the template. I want the links to be randomly
selected from a list and to use an FIR derivation to show the relevant
company logos in an accessible manner. I also, however, want the user
to be able to edit an xml file describing the attributes of the various
sponsors and to add new ones. Normally I would define the FIR images in
a linked x.css file but this is not scriptable. How does the list
suggest the tags should be styled in this case?
* Inline stylesheets?
* Linked ".php" with content-type of text/css?
* style="" attribute?
Any thoughts??
Thanks
Stephen
