Link to CSS file from CSS file

Question

Is it possible call another external CSS file from external CSS file?

That's why they're called "cascading" :p – Artefacto May 17 '10 at 22:40 — Artefacto, May 17 '10 at 22:40

Yes, like so:

@import "relative/path/to/css.css";

I would say that `link` is considered better practice. `@import` does not download the imported files in parallel to everything else, where as `link` does. Use `link` for improved page performance.

Akamike is right. But sometimes `@import` does come in handy. – Jakub Hampl May 17 '10 at 22:47
