   Hi folks,

   I'm building a new theme I'm hoping to release for download soon. The theme contains a stylsheet switcher that allows the user to change the look of the site, without having to load a whole new theme. It works great, but I need to figure out how to modify one line of code so I don't have to specify the absolute path to the stylesheet (since it will be different for everyone). The line of code I have now is:

   $ss->addStyle("default", "http://www.mysite.com/blog/wp-content/themes/Access/css/default.css", "screen");

   I tried using:

   $ss->addStyle("default", "<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/css/default.css", "screen");

   But <?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?> renders out as text. How can I alter that line so it will write out the path to the template?

   use get_bloginfo(); instead.

   <?php get_bloginfo('template_url'); ?>

   Thanks, but unfortunately, it's the same result. When it renders, I get:

   <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php get_bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/css/default.css" media="Screen" type="text/css" />

   Perhaps it would help if I posted the whole block:

   <?php
   // BEGIN STYLESWITCHER CODE
   if(!isset($reqPath)){ $reqPath = ""; }
   require_once($reqPath ."inc/styleswitcher.php");
   $ss = new Styleswitcher();
   $ss->addStyle("default", "http://www.mysite.com/blog/wp-content/themes/Access/css/default.css", "Screen");
   $ss->addStyle("hc", "http://www.mysite.com/blog/wp-content/themes/Access/css/hc.css", "Screen");
   $ss->createSet("style");
   $ss->addStyleToSet("style", "default", true);
   $ss->addStyleToSet("style", "hc");
   $ss->cookieDomain = ".". $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
   $ss->cookieName = "cwStyle";
   $ss->printStyles();
   // End Styleswitcher code
   ?>

   Right on... I should have posted:

   $my_url = get_bloginfo('template_url') . '/css/default.css';
   $ss->addStyle("default", $my_url, "screen");
