css file can't grab querystring

I'm building a CMS that has various controls that grab various values from
the querystring.

Those all work just fine.

However, one of my files is actually a CSS file. It's an ASPX file that
dynamically writes out the CSS. It's loaded as you would any CSS file (from
a link tag).

The catch is that from this aspx page, I can not grab the querystring. I'm
guessing, because it's not the actual ASPX page that is loading everything
else.

The solution that I came up with is to convert this to a usercontrol, then
load the usercontrol in my HEAD tags, and just have it write out inline CSS
for me.

However, I was wondering if there's another option that wouldn't require me
to do the inline response.write. Is there anyway to grab the querystring
from this aspx page?

You could write the appropriate query string parameters and values in a new
query string that you would append to the link for the css/aspx file.

Ex:

<LINK REL="stylesheet" TYPE="text/css" HREF="styles.aspx?<%= "userId=" &
Request.QueryString("userId") & "&userName=" &
Request.QueryString("userName") %>">
 
You could write the appropriate query string parameters and values in a
new
query string that you would append to the link for the css/aspx file.

Oh, duh! Wonderful solution!
