Add php code to css

Question

I have php string with css code. And I want to add php value to css code ( $main_color ). So I try:

$css = $css . "
    .main{ color:<?php echo esc_attr($main_color);?>; }
";

but it doesnt work.

`echo` it inside your CSS `style` tag. Also why are you trying to echo inside `PHP`? Just concatenate the variable. — Spencer Wieczorek, Apr 17 '17 at 20:00
You're making this harder than it should be. You also should be getting a parse error here. — Funk Forty Niner, Apr 17 '17 at 20:17

You can't nest PHP tags like that; you need to concatenate the values:

$css = $css . "
    .main{ " . esc_attr($main_color) . "; }
";
