“Several CSS developers have wished for the use of variables in the past. Come on, let’s face it, typing in the color #d8a1d9 several different times isn’t exactly saving you time. But what if you could define the variable lightpurple and have something automatically paste the #d8a1d9 value in for you? What if you could have different stylesheets for different browsers automatically load for you? Now you can, and believe it or not, it’s not hard at all. PHPMYCSS crosses over server side features to make sure that your CSS is dynamic and setup the way you want.”

PHPmyCSS is free and you have a look at the usage instructions as well.
