I'm getting grief from a client because the CSS validator is giving 
errors on his site [1]. The problem is that I have PHP parse the 
stylesheets because I'm lazy and don't want to deal with all of the 
cross-browser hacks when PHP can do a simple UA detect; so the files 
are named "style.css.php", etc. I use Apache's content negotiation [2] 
to make the <link> be to "style.css" so no-one gets weirded out by 
the .php suffix. Every browser handles this fine and I can't tell why 
the validator doesn't.
