Hey Frank,

Maybe you want to take a look at this:
http://peter-osburg.ehstpro.de/2008/11/13/changing-css-during-run-time-of-your-web-application/

In this case I created a solution where I use a file library to store
my css files and to change them dynamically. Maybe it can help you
finding a solution for your case.

Maybe you can also consider using the css keyword @import for
dynamically changing the content:

Hope that helps.

Regards,
Peter
