James,

You can put all of your stylesheet information in 1 (or more) .css files, then at the top of each web page link to the css like this:

<link href="/global.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

This assumes your css file is called global.css and is in the root folder of your web site.

I like to put my stylesheet files in a folder /asset/css so they are all together.

In dreamweaver, when you first add a new CSS style, it will ask you where you want to create it. Either in a file (will prompt you to save and name the file) or 'in this document only', which will put the definitions at the top of your web page.

Linking to an external css file is a much better option, because it gives you greater flexibility. Define styles at the top of a web page if the style is ONLY going to be used on that page, and nowhere else.

Regards, Rich
