Maybe setup your table like this:
selector style value
-------------------------------------
HEADER1 font-size small
HEADER1 color black
etc...
Then have a PHP page (user_styles.php) that queries the DB for the
styles and echoes them:
$result = query("SELECT * from user_styles WHERE userid = $userid");
while($row = fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo $row['selector']." { ".$row['style'].": ".$row['value']." }\n";
}
Then just link the PHP page as a stylesheet in your HTML:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="user_styles.php" type="text/css" />
