I'm making a simple Joomla plugin that loads a CSS file, but I want to load a different file for Joomla 2.5 and 3.2, using a PHP if-else statement. Is it possible to determine the Joomla version of the site using PHP?

You can use the named constant JVERSION or if you need more functions use the JVersion object like:

$j = new JVersion()
echo $j->getLongVersion();
echo $j->$RELEASE;
