Using instance variables in CSS

Rails
1

What suggestions do you guys have for using instance variables in CSS?
I suppose I could just include a partial with style tags, but I’m
looking for something a little more elegant.

I found this: http://rcss.rubyforge.org/ Has anyone used it?

That rcss project has gone in a different direction. It’s all about
server-side variables now, which I feel don’t integrate well with
typical Rails development. I have a simple solution for doing rcss with
ERb templates that works well:

If you’re on edge Rails, note that the new routing means you have to do
your route a bit differently. I’ll have to update that article soon…
