I find these both particularly ugly and use the '@import hack' instead.
Just a normal line in the HTML and the real hack in the CSS code itself.
After all it is the presentation, design or functionality that is the
issue, *not the content*.
This is all i have in the (X)HTML
<link rel="stylesheet" href="master.css" type="text/css" />
But heres the CSS master file
/* ** master.css ** */
@import url("layout.css");
@import url("colour.css");
@import url("fonts.css");
@import url(.css) all;
/* **************** */
That's it; the trick is in that final line. IE loads a file called
"url(.css) all" and all other browsers load a file called ".css". It
relies on a bug in IE. I usually have very few hacks in the ".css" file
compared to the "url(.css) all" file.
I first read about this hack here:
http://annevankesteren.nl/2005/10/ie-import-hack
A full range of @import hacks and browsers affected are here:
http://imfo.ru/csstest/css_hacks/import.php
But my requirements are not that specific.
