Yeah
I thought of this way though,
Handling headers for CSS is trickier than it looks, as you need to
handle
Etags
HTTP 304: Not Modified
Last-Modified ...
so it can be PITA
So what I am thinking of is to make, PHP handles CSS for testing
and with JS on the page I can call different params for respected CSS
file, than tune colors until satisfied.
After that I just need to save that color scheme generate static CSS
and thats it.
Hm this is a good idea to make an online tool with this
functionality ....
