(I get the message "No style sheet found" when trying to validate such a page.) In other words, this does not work: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css;charset=UTF-8" href="style.css"> While this does work: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css"> As far as I know, the former is valid HTML, is supported in at least some standards-compliant browsers (namely Mozilla and Opera), and is the preferred way of specifying the encoding of the stylesheet. 1937 1 bjoern 2004-05-23 15:34:31 +0000 I am not so sure whether what you attempt to do is actually allowed, see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-html-editor/2004AprJun/0164.html You should rather use the "charset" attribute on the link element if you must, e.g. <link charset = utf-8 type = "text/css" href = "..." ...>. 2567 2 ewexler 2004-10-27 12:56:37 +0000 Regarding comment #0, the preferred way to specify the encoding of a style sheet is to send the appropriate HTTP or MIME "charset" parameter. 5556 3 ylafon 2005-08-29 12:23:56 +0000 With the new handling of mime type with the type attribute, it resolves also this one (even if it may be bad practise).
