Social Networking Site Help

[Moshambi]

Hello,

I am creating a social networking site using PHP. I am using templates for the pages. I want to let the users be able to choose the colors they want for their own pages. I am curious on how I can do this using PHP. The only way I can think is to override the styles by embedding them in the page.

Example:

CSS File:

body
{
background-color: #000000;
}

Generated PHP page:

<style type="text/css">

body
{
background-color: <?php echo $color; ?>;
}

</style>

I know this is not a good idea, as it will cause pages to be very heavy. Plus I want to keep all my content and styles separate like it should be. Could anyone give me any suggestions for an alternative way?

Thanks!
