Moving css from top of a page to a new stylesheet what's the zen way to link?

[icecold]

I had a page with a css declaration on top and I moved it to another stylesheet, so my question is if I have to add a

<LINK REL=StyleSheet HREF="mystyle.css" TYPE="text/css" MEDIA=screen>

to the place where the css styles where, what's the Zen way to do it?

I mean what functions I have to call, to replace that html?

That(the stylesheet mystyles.css), will be inside my template's css directory.

I'm not sure what you mean by "on top", but zen-cart will automatically load all stylesheets named style*.css from your current template's /css folder. You could try renaming mystyles.css to something like stylesheet_mine.css (I *think* that that will cause it to load after your stylesheet.css file).

You don't need to do any function calls. As stated above ZC will automatically load all stylesheets it finds in the current template's css folder. If you just need to add a few bits of CSS, you could more easily add them to the bottom of the main stylesheet.css file. Or you could, as you say, make a styles_mystyles.css stylesheet. But don't put any more in there than necessary to make your CSS mods.

ok, but I thought it would be a more elegant and probably efficient way to do that, instead of just entering the link, using Zen_href or other ZC php functions.

I know where the stylesheets go and please note mystylesheet.css is not the name of the real thing is just an example, I wanted to understand if there was a ZC way to write links inside the code. I supposed you can call a function using the override system and just wanted to know the syntax. All my css stylesheets are minimized, shrunk after they load.

ok, I see there is code that simply loads all css files inside the css directory of the current template, is this piece of code

    foreach($files['css'] as $file)
        if($file['include']) include($file['src']);
        else if(!$RI_CJLoader->get('minify') || $file['external']) echo "<link rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text/css\" href='{$file['src']}' />\n";
        else echo "<link rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text/css\" href=\"min/?f={$file['src']}&amp;".$RI_CJLoader->get('minify_time')."\" />\n"; 

This is part of the minify script, but it does load all css files inside the directory. So now I understand why there is nothing to be added just the file and it will be loaded automatically by the code.
