im creating a portal, but need one bit of help

[nem]

Hi,
Im in the middle of creating the admin panel, and i have created most of the site with stylesheeting to make it easier to change the look.
I would like somewhere in the admin panel to show the css so it can be easily editable online!
How can i import the css from the webserver on the php page and then let it update at the same time too?

Please do help.
Regards

It's really not too bad: Simply use fopen() to open the file, fread() to read it, then fclose() to close it. Or you if you want to read the file into a string use file_get_contents().

Hope this helps 😉

better yet make your css file read from your database, then the admin panel is just a dbaccess page.

Can the CSS page be cached by the browser if you do it like that? If not you're loosing a major advantage of CSS, lower bandwidth usage.
