Not quite true. Multiple inclusion does not by itself allow cycles - only inclusion of a parent stylesheet. This is detectable with a different algorithm. I was asking if multiple inclusions were explicitly disallowed by any version of the CSS specification - I cannot find any reference to them. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Neil St.Laurent [SMTP:neil@bigpic.com] > Sent: Monday, January 05, 1998 12:07 PM > To: Chris Wilson > Cc: www-style@w3.org > Subject: RE: Same source multiple times with @import > > > Where is there a rule that says if the same rule is included twice, the > > second inclusion is ignored?
