The closest CSS gets is the content property -
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/generate.html#content - but that isn't
really useful for the usecase you describe.

CSS is about presentation, not including content, so it isn't the
right tool for this job.

http://allmyfaqs.net/faq.pl?Include_one_file_in_another has a good
summary of the main options you have.
