    Solved help with linking external CSS

    Post by K50 July 3rd 2012, 2:30 am

    Hello, I'm K50.

    I'm currently working on a new HTML page for a site I'm an administrator of but I'm having trouble with the CSS sheets. I don't want to use the CSS the forums do, I want it completely unique. I was wondering how, if possible, I could host a CSS sheet and link to it with a < link rel .... > function in that HTML page?

    Hopefully that makes sense, I'm a rookie with CSS Razz thanks for the help.

    I'm not sure I understand your question. You cannot host your own CSS stylesheet you have to use forumotions. If you don't want the stylesheet to have any influence on your html page set it to not show the header and footer, and use html coding to override anything the CSS stylesheet might be producing.

    you can make your own css.

    Make an HTML page called "css2.css"

    then use the link rel on the custom page for it.

    Alternatively... you can do this in the same HTML page as what you're designing:

    Code:
    <style type="text/css">
    CSS GOES HERE
    </style>
