There are two ways to link to external stylesheets by including the following in the header of your page:
<style type=”text/css”>
@import url(/filepath/style.css);
</style>
Or,
<link href=”/filepath/style.css” rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” />
There are few advantages or disadvantages between the two methods
@import can be used within stylesheets to append other styles to the document but must be used before any style rules are set
@import “mystyle.css”;
And
@import url(“mystyle.css”);
Are interchangeable
