Does the order of link types matter? In HTML 4.01 section 6.12 <http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/types.html#h-6.12> says the following: > Stylesheet > Refers to an external style sheet. See the section on external > style sheets for details. This is used together with the link type > "Alternate" for user-selectable alternate style sheets. Which seems to imply that order doesn't matter. Yet when section 14.3.2 <http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/present/styles.html#h-14.3.2> talks about alternate style sheets, it says this: > To specify an alternate style sheet, set the rel attribute to > "alternate stylesheet" and name the style sheet with the title > attribute. And every example I can find on in HTML 4.01 and w3.org follows this order. Shouldn't "stylesheet alternate" be equal to "alternate stylesheet"? I can't find a section in HTML that defines order to be important or unimportant in link types, so I'm assuming it's unimportant. Any sort of reference or insights would be helpful. -- John
