I also embed php variables inside css -- it gives it more functionality.
I embed them in the CSS template, which is compiled to a CSS stylesheet
file and so the variables become static after compilation. This is
useful if you're not determining values by any PHP logic, since then
your stylesheet can be served up as a static document while retaining
the flexibility of using variably defined values to generate the
stylesheet.
Cheers,
Rob.

I think that's the only way it can be done except doing things with
Ajax. If so, then styesheets can become "dynamic" -- but when served,
they are static.
For me, I just provide a header at the beginning of the css file and
a .htaccess rule to treat css suffix files as php documents.
