I believe what you may have seen is the practice of

having <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="" media="screen"> in the
page body for xhtml validation purposes
having a raft of @import statements in the linked CSS file

The principle being to modularise your CSS, having multiple separate CSS
files

I don't think the real concern is for long since dead browsers such as IE4
and NN4

Makes sense and I already knew that.

The reason behind my post has to do with me noticing a trend towards
importing style sheets and I was curious if this was the current "best
practice" and if so, why.


Bob

Using the @import stylesheet rule is great if you only want your
stylesheet rules to be picked up by most modern browsers. Netscape 4 and
below and IE 4 and below do not support the @import rule. This allows you to
target stylesheets to specific browser versions.

Does that make sense?
