SV: [ZPT] playing with stylesheets in ZPT?

[Geir Bækholt]

couldn't you just make a <style tal:replace="structure
here/dtml_method_that_returns_a_style_tag_with_proper_linking></styl
e>

and then a second <style></style> - set for your designers to fiddle
with...??

perhaps i misunderstood your problem, but i am currently of the
opinion that dynamicism inside style or script elements would be
simpler in dtml/python , and just fetching the entire block into
your template with tal:replace or tal:content...
