Importing a CSS file using @import
Learn how to import CSS files using the @import directive
From any CSS file you can import another CSS file using the @import
directive.
Here is how you use it:
@import url(myfile.css)
url() can manage absolute or relative URLs.
One important thing you need to know is that @import
directives must be put before any other CSS in the file, or they will be ignored.
You can use media descriptors to only load a CSS file on the specific media:
@import url(myfile.css) all;
@import url(myfile-screen.css) screen;
@import url(myfile-print.css) print;
