I am continually scripting CSS, because for one of the main sites I work on the images are coming out of a CMS, so I need to write a references asp.net whenever I want a background-image. Colours are also dynamic in some parts of the site.
However, over two years of hardcore CSS work, I have found myself scripting less and less. At one time we were using a navigation system which required dynamically writing special rules for each element, and adding an extra line of CSS to each page to indicate which page was being visited. Then I realised all that was needed was a special class written into the html for the navigation of the current page. It is often the case that re-framing the problem leads to a simple, static solution, as others have already pointed out. I have been working on an AJAX project of late, but am avoiding the temptations of adding new CSS rules by javascript. IMO that way madness lies. If js sets classes and ids, these are all the hooks my static CSS needs.
