Variables in css

Can we use variables in css files

[Murali]

i need something like following.

-------------------------------------
variable myColor = #eeeeee

body {
backgroundColor : myColor;
}

p {
color: myColor;
}
-------------------------------------

so that i can just change the variable value, instead of chaging color value in all the places.

any solution?

thanks in advance

php can do this (as can asp and others),

You can reference a .php file in your style tags (or set the server to parse css as php).

You have to add

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

at the top of the file, or firefox wont play nice. ;)

I'd recommend using Shaun Inman's excellent CSS Server-side constants method.
