Multiple CSS sheets

[tomster2300]

I am including a jquery script to one of my pages and it includes its own style sheet (actually it's in the html header, but I'm separating it for my own sanity's sake). I would just link it, but the problem is it assigns different values to tags I've already used, and it's going to be a pain in the butt to go through and changes all the names. Is there any way to link to the sheet and in my html say only "x" divs follow the second style sheet and ignore the main one?

Thanks.

Nope. The main reason for seperating out CSS files is for easier code maintainability. Otherwise, everything you have in those files will be applied.

(for example, a sheet for the reset, a sheet for layout, and a sheet for eye candy)

The other reason is for IE compatability. Sometimes IE needs its own special CSS, so IE-specific CSS is included as seperate files within conditional statements.


What you can do is with your editor do a "replace all" when renaming things. Be careful that if you try to rename a shorter name, that it doesn't also appear as part of a larger name elsewhere.
