    .css extension

    I recently changed a .css file to .asp to insert some server side code to
    write different css elements based upon some data base criteria. IE and
    Opera appear to process the .asp file and use the adjusted css. Mozilla and
    Firefox ignore it completely and display the pages with no css.

    I couldn't find anything stating I couldn't use server side scripting to
    write a css file. Is there anything in the spec that prohibits it?

    The HTML I'm using is
    <link rel="stylesheet " type="text/css" href="css.asp">

      The style sheet is probably being sent with an incorrect Content-Type
      header. See http://css.nu/faq/ciwas-aFAQ.html#QA05

          I expect so. The mozilla Tools > Web Development > Javascript Console
          would confirm it.

              On the project I'm currently working on, the style sheets are all .asp
              files.
              We set the content type in the first line of these .asp files with this
              code:

              <%Response.Cont entType="text/css";%>

              That seems to work fine with Mozilla.

                      Only if the IIS ASP server defaults to vbscript,
                      not necessary [removing the ;] if the default is set to jscript
