@import

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Apr 14.2005

I am working with an app that has 2 different templates (different sections) and thus calls 2 different css files…. I’ve got it narrowed down to mostly using one, but I’m wondering if it would be easier to use the main site template’s css and insert the second as @import … that way the second area (a forum) can still call it’s css dynamically, but the basic things such as td’s and links and stuff would all be the same.

If my thinking is correct…. what is the best way to use @import? What browsers DON’T display this? I think I read somewhere that this was CSS2 and IE doesn’t do CSS2….. in which case, I won’t do it, because [I]unfortunately[/I] most folks still use IE…

Thanks!

@JonaApr 14.2005 — [font=Trebuchet MS]Hi Lilqhgal,

The @import rule is actually CSS1. Fortunately, this means that it's going to be supported by most browsers. There are some exceptions, but it depends how you use it. [url=http://w3development.de/css/hide_css_from_browsers/import/]Here's a few tests[/url] that should show you just what browsers understand the @import rule, depending on just how you implement it.

Hope this helps.[/font]

Success!
