Super basic question - 1/3/2006 11:31:27   
I'm just dipping edge of my little toenail into CSS and I need to know one thing to start. I understand what a style sheet is. What I'm wondering is that for each page I build, does it need to be pointed to the style sheet or is it more automatic? Also, how do dynamically generated pages figure in? Thanks for any help.

You need to point every page at the stylesheet that you're applying to it otherwise it's got nothing to go on - if you see what I mean.

Dynamically generated pages must have header info somewhere - just include the call to the external stylesheet in there. The dynamically produced content of the page will be formatted exactly the same way as "static" content would be.
