.htaccess redirect css to php

Question

I have multiple css files in a directory (style0.css, style1.css etc..) How can I redirect a request to these css files with htaccess so that a php can process the requested css file. ex. /styles/style0.css -> /includes/compressor.php?i=style0.css ?

Answer 1

Add an .htaccess to your css directory with these two lines. You can now add php code to your css files, and it will be processed :

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .css

php_value default_mimetype "text/css"
