Have a quick question with my current code below I plan on using the CSS styles wrapper, menu, spry, about, news and content with all of my pages, probably 10 additional pages. All of the others are more so specific to this page, so can I link an external style sheet for these styles I'll use throughout then add the specific ones per page as the pages are created. Also where does the external style sheet need to be located...thanks for any help provided

Hi,
see to see how to add an external style sheet to a page. Simply write your stylesheet in notepad ( omitting the <style ...</style> tags and save with a .css extension. The css file should then be placed in the same folder as all of the pages you want to include it in.

Just copy and paste your CSS styles wrapper, menu, spry, about, news and content into notepad and maybe save as allpages.css.

The css file should then be placed in the same folder on your server as all of the pages you want to include it in.

Please note any duplicate styles in styles sheets embedded on your pages will take precedence over any in your external style sheet

Hope this helps.

Steve
