[jQuery] Re: @import vs link

[Mitch]

Check this:

   
   @import '/public/js/jtip/css/jtip.css';
   #JT{ background-color: lightcyan; }
   .jTip   { cursor:default;}
   #JT_close_left  { background-color: green;  color: white; }
   #JT_close_right { background-color: green;  color: yellow;}
   "

Its from HLS, which I dont think stands for Hue, Luminence and
Saturation, but is a gentleman's initials.

[jQuery] Re: @import vs link

The link tag is html, @import is CSS.   You can use @import from within a
stylesheet (has to be the first text) to include many stylesheets with a
single  tag

Also import is not recognized by netscape 4 so it can be used to hid
stylesheets from older browsers.

Link is the more flexible option. The media and rel attributes give
you some control that @import lacks.
Generally I use import now as an organisational tool - linking in
separate CSS files from _within_ a central CSS file.
I remember years ago using the import to hide CSS from the likes of
IE3.
