when linking java script and CSS from another file where do you put the link command in the HTML document?? it seems like my HTML page is not reading my CSS.

here is my command:

<link href=”scripts/sheet.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css”>
<script language=”JavaScript” src=”scripts/java.js”></script>

@CharlesSep 19.2003 — [font=georgia]The [url=http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/links.html#edef-LINK]LINK[/url] element goes only in the HEAD. The SCRIPT element can go in either the HEAD or the BODY element. It is traditional to put as much of the script as one can in the document's HEAD, but any "document.write()" statements will have to go in the BODY.[/font]

@David_HarrisonSep 19.2003 — I always put my document.write()'s in a function and then I just call the function in the body, it's a lot cleaner.

I also avoid referencing external scripts in the body, it just doesn't seem right some how.

@ukemikeauthorSep 19.2003 — is it because the link is in a div tag on the page that i linked that css to??

@David_HarrisonSep 19.2003 — That CSS should apply styling to all a tags on a page. Do you have a link to the page that shows the CSS not working?
