Reuse some existing css value?

[howa]

Hello,

Consider I have a background-color set to red, e.g.

#header { background-color: red }

This value is a variable - can be changed by user

I want the footer to also use this value, something like e.g.

#footer {
background-color: {$header_background_color}
}
besides using script such as PHP, is it possible to do this in pure
css?

thanks.

No CSS does not have variables. You can do

#header, #footer { background-color: red; }
