Hi ,
>I think its also improper markup to have more than one stylesheet
In no way should multiple statements be construed as improper.
Multiple 'link-rel's" is the correct way to specify different media type's
and is no more incorrect then having more then one statement.
The move to modular
I think its also improper markup to have more than one stylesheet so
@import might be a way to keep the code modular and still only have one
style sheet link.

Hi ,
I believe @import was originally used by designers to create styles
Netscape Navigator 4 would not implement incorrectly.
Some other reasons why you might use this rather then multiple
declarations, include:
You can declare the @import within a CSS file
To be a little pedantic, the cascade includes both of those things so
it's incorrect to say they override the cascade.
My understanding of the cascade is that it includes all the following
steps:
1. Sort by importance (i.e. !important or not)
2. Sort by specificity
3. Sort by source order

Is there a difference or specific reason to use the @import

That would be the LAST style that is most relevant to the element. (unless
!important is used to override the cascade.)

I see no reason not to use multiple stylesheets other than a smaller
download time.
Each stylesheet should be separated only if it serves a purpose of course.
For example, most of my sites currently use this formula:
I could probably add a handheld stylesheet to that setup.
Th
You specify different stylesheets for different medias. The most common ones
are to target handhelds, print and screenreaders. The user-agent will use
the MEDIA attribute to pick the correct stylesheet.
It is also possible to provide multiple stylesheets which the user can
select from. Though IE

Michael,
Multiple style sheets are quite common in large sites. Splitting your
stylesheets into a "basics", "main" and "special cases" is good for keeping
your code separate, also allowing multiple developers to work on different
areas of a site's styles without interrupting each other. It's also

Hi Nancy,
the reason for the black outline around the submit button in IE6 and 7 is
that IE renders the buttons with the system API, and if you view each
Windows interface, the default button that fires the click event with the
