CSScaffold: PHP Based CSS Framework
CSScaffold is a CSS framework written in PHP. Unlike pure CSS framework (e.g., Blueprint, etc) that uses the standard abilities of CSS, it uses PHP to extend CSS. The syntax looks and feels exactly like CSS, except that you have additional features.

Scaffold requires a web server with PHP 5+; Mod_rewrite for Apache is required if you want it work automatically route your CSS files through Scaffold. If you don’t want it work automatically, you can point your CSS files directly to Scaffold.
