Hi!
Good idea. I thought about adding support for a style.css file
anyway to keep templates more similar to the plugins.
Wouldn't it be better and more flexible to have a template-function
that can be used in main.php, etc. that passes on each needed css
file (individually per template)?
Any suggestions on how this should look like? I thought my self about
adding the names of the stylesheets into the style.ini file. Something
like:
[stylesheets]
layout.css = screen
design.css = screen
print.css = print
[replacements]
__background__ == #fff
That would be fine with me. And it makes sense, as you can put
replacements *in the same file* as the information *where* to replace
them. But then again, css.php is not only there for replacements ...
And that would mean that template developers *have to* use the
style.ini. I don't know if that is a disadvantage, though!?
Your suggestion of using a template function has the charm of being able
to selectively choose different stylesheets in different php templates
instead of always loading everything. But I guess the call could look
somewhat messy with multiple stylesheets.
Yes, that's how I handled the various css files at first (e.g. the
media_something.php's did call my own media.css and not all of the other
css files, and media.css was not called by main.php, just by the
media_something.php's). But as that can be handled differently and
performance would not suffer too much, I would not mind using the first
solution ...
I think, yes, I'd prefer defining all needed css files in the style.ini.
By the way, currently you are only distinguishing between screen and
print css files. What about the other media types (handheld, braille,
aural, projection, etc.)? The way you mentioned "layout.css = screen",
it seems like you already thought about that!?
