If this was widely supported it could be a much more powerful tool in defining CSS variables, they could be conditional variables such as a colour changer for a web page. However as you rightly say they aren't supported and in fact horrible. CSS and JavaScript should be split and not live together! @BTM as Jos says this is more of a concept rather than an actually use.

Dont really see any other uses as it's a IE only thingy and will prolly never by implemented in anything else as it's not standard compilant. only use of Expressions I’ve seen thats interesting is mimicking `position: fixed` by calculating the page offset anf changing element position.

I thought about CSS variables and math ops a lot recently, but JS never crossed my mind. Since it runs on the client side you can't be sure that it's actually executed. But it's probably good enough for proof of concept things. The name of the function in your example is bad though. You should have called it primaryColor or something like that. ;) That’s indeed a really interesting idea. I thought about CSS variables and math ops a lot recently, but JS never crossed my mind.
