Hello,

I am creating a theme based on an xhtml template.

I copied the xhtml into page.tpl.php and used bluemarine's page.tpl.php as a base from which to find the php code to place into my page.tpl.php and populate the theme with the drupal content. Being new to this I was impressed by how easy it was to get this working!

The problem is that the xhtml uses two style sheets - style.css and colour.css. Due to the way in which the styles are defined, merging these two sheets into one is almost impossible!

I print $styles in the section but drupal only seems to output the style.css stylesheet. The colour.css stylesheet is not parsed.

How can I have both style sheets correctly read and output by drupal from the page.tpl.php file? Do I need to define another variable for $styles or populate that with the new style as well somehow? How would I do that? Or is there an easier way :)

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Thanks,

NICK

Check out:

drupal_get_css and drupal_add_css

Maybe those will help....

At the very top of your style.css (must be the very first line to work) call all you other secondary files with the CSS @import directive
@import: url("path/other.css");

Here is an exhaustive review of: @import CSS directive - Including external CSS files and commands
