Is it a bad idea to use php in css documents?

Question

I created a css page called style.php and included it at the top:

<?php header("Content-type: text/css"); ?>

It makes you cringe. Is this a terrible idea? I do this because I created a CMS that allows the administrator to control the colors on the pages (therefore, the style.php script queries the database and captures hexadecimal values).

Any thoughts?

Answer 1

This is a great solution, just make sure you serve the appropriate headers. See my blog post on a related topic (search for “important headlines” to go to the right section).

One more thing:

, , , ( ), . , ? = Id URL-, ID - , (, ), , .

• http://example.com/style.php?id=0
• , URL http://example.com/style.php?id=1 ..
