[HTML] Reducing the load time of your website!

[James:Ramsden]

yes, but if you have a lot of pages all with the same styles it can be easier just to attach the link to all of your pages. Then again you can just copy and paste from one page to another and some hosts dont support .css files. So I guess it's just a matter of opinion.

I use a php include based navigtaion, so the index page contnts css plants on to every page of the site, so there would be little point.

Athogh i have sepirated a fe javascript files, athogh thats mainly for astitic values so i can sepirated and edit persific code more easly

You guys don't know what you're talking about... In management of a website terms using this techinque allows you to update a site which could have 1000+ pages by editing one or maybe a couple of .css or .js files depending on the coding you are using on your site. I know that editing each page one at a time not only takes ages but also leaves room for human error. + rep for a great and simple guide!

But this isnt about easy of updateing? and most people here dont use a site comprised of a load of small html files? we use self contained user systems which can easly include css, a repated code in with ease, and are far easyer to update and maintain than a load of html pages, many even have online adminstration systems "/

Plus this is about increasieng page load, which few of the techniques here do, css and js files do to improved cacheing of them, can save minor amounts, while Gzipping the one not mentioned is more along the lines of a 70/80 % band width saveing per page load which is alot more "/

Will work a charm.
