I've had server - side generated CSS to change background colors running
fine for over a year.
Knowing Browsers load CSS sheets once for efficiency, I can't remember at
all how I managed to get the browser to reload the modified stylesheet when
a parameter was changed. How would the browser know a server session
variable changed? No way. So how come it was loading a fresh CSS page very
time the user clicked the right icon? I dunno.
Of course, it quit working the minute I realized that this might be a
problem. Sure enough, hitting the browser refresh loads the revised page
and everything is hunkey dorey.
Reminds me of Wiley Coyote running off a cliff. He hovers in mid air but
doesn't fall and is afraid to look down. He feels around, nope, no ground,
so he peeks and THEN falls like a rock.
Any help other than a large heavy object appreciated.
