paddyhaig Posted June 5, 2010 Author Share Posted June 5, 2010 Would this be the correct way of doing it in my example below? Or is the a more acceptable standardized way? Thanks in advance for your help. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>example/title> <!-- This is an experiment using an inpage style --> <style type="text/css"> #box_a { height: 184px; width: 145px; padding: 0px; left: 160px; top: 120px; position: absolute; margin-top: -55px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: auto; margin-left: -65px; } </style> <!-- This is an experiment using also an external style sheet --> <link href="css/text_test.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> </body> </html> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/203930-is-it-possible-to-have-an-external-css-document-and-inpage-css-fomatting/#findComment-1068185 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignace Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 You have 3 forms to include CSS: External: <link href="stylesheet.css"> Internal: <style type="text/css"> .. </style And inline: <p style="color: blue">..</p> inline overwrites internal, internal overwrites external.

paddyhaig Posted June 6, 2010 Author Share Posted June 6, 2010 Thank you for your answer. What I want is for all the pages to share a single style css sheet for their backdrop and text, so that the backdrop and text through-out the site is consistent. But the table placement in the pages is unique, so I want the div's and css rules for the table placement to internal. I don't want a huge and difficult to understand external css sheet. Is the below valid? I guess unlike the first example I should put the link to the external style sheet first (Before the internal style sheet's styles)? Is this the correct way to do this??? <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>example/title> <!-- This is an experiment using an external style sheet --> <link href="css/text_test.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <!-- This is an experiment using also an internal style --> <style type="text/css"> #center_box { height: 184px; width: 145px; padding: 0px; left: 160px; top: 120px; position: absolute; margin-top: -55px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: auto; margin-left: -65px; } </style> <!-- I would like for the styles to be pulled from both the style rule containers --> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="small-blue-box"> <div id="center_box"> </body> </html> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/203930-is-it-possible-to-have-an-external-css-document-and-inpage-css-fomatting/#findComment-1068446 Share on other sites More sharing options...
