Multiple style sheets - 6/21/2004 11:20:52
I could have sworn I'd asked this before, but I couldn't find a post on it anywhere. On the site I'm working on right now, I'd like to be able to use 2 style sheets on each page. One would control layout, and the other color. The site is broken into several sections, each section having it's own color scheme. Is it possible for me to have 2 sheets, each referring to the same section, but with different directions?
Let me clarify: layout.css would have:
#layout {width: 758px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-top: 20px;}
#banner {width: 750px; padding-top: 15px; padding-right: 10px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: right;}
and scheme1.css would have:
#layout {background-color: #fff; border:1px solid #006666;}
#banner {color:#fff; background: #006666;}
Does that make sense? I'd really like to be able to do it this way so that I only have to maintain the layout in one file.

Yes you can have two style sheets. As long as you have them linked to come into your page you should be fine. I have seen several people do this while viewing their codes online.
Some people will use one style sheet to do layout and another to do something else. I guess it makes it easier for them to maintain the styles. Easier to locate things on them.
I can try to find them if you wish. Might take a bit though, I have tons of css stuff bookmarked.

Do you know if there's a certain order they have to be linked in, such as layout first, then colors? I tried playing with it last week, but couldn't seem to get it to work right.

I would imagine that you would want your layout to load first.
I'm sure that if you did a search on multiple style sheets something might come up on how to do it. I might still have a search saved somewhere because I remember the post previously and did some searching on it.

OK, it's working now. I must've just been missing a semicolon or something last time I tried.

Another question. I noticed that my top level pages display just fine, but that some of the child pages (held in a different directory) are displaying smaller menu text than what I specified. Any ideas?
What the menu looks like
What it's supposed to look like

Hmm I see what you mean.
Do you have any styles different on the other pages? Check through your code on the pages and see if there is any differences.
Are the style sheets linked all the same?

I couldn't see any differences anywhere, and I went over (and over and over...) the code several times. I finally copy and pasted everything from a different page into the offending one and it works fine now.
Apparently the CSS gremlins were at it again!
