How to Embed CSS into a View using the Yii Framework 1.1

1. This can be done using the registerCss() method of the CClientScript class. CClientScript manages JavaScript and CSS stylesheets for views.  registerCss()registers a piece of CSS code.
2. Place code similar to the example code below in your View

   Yii::app()->clientScript->registerCss('customCSS',<<<CSS
      li {
       font-weight: normal;
      }
   CSS
   );
   

3. In the code above the first parameter is a string and ID that uniquely identifies this piece of CSS code. The second Parameter contains the CSS code.
4. This code will automatically embed CSS into your webpage using your VIEW.
