link

1 <head>2     <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="sheet1.css" media="all">3 </head>
Copy after login

@import

1 <style type="text/css">2     @import url(sheet1.css);      3 </style>
Copy after login

Difference

  • Loading order:
  • Link is to load the css file to the web page first, and then compile it. @import loads the html structure first and then the css file. If the network speed is slow, it will affect the visual effect.

    Link ensures that css files are downloaded in parallel, @import is downloaded one by one.

    In IE, link will block @import and extend the loading time. The use of multiple @imports will also disrupt the download order of resource files and cause js problems.

  • Compatibility: link is an xhtml tag and has no compatibility issues. @import is proposed by css2.1 so it does not support browsers before IE5.
  • DOM support: link supports DOM change style, @import does not support it.
  • In addition, the link tag can also call js files, declaration directories, etc. @import can only load css.
  • Select

  • Use link:
  •  link to select the media to load. Due to the above loading, compatibility and IE reasons, ordinary sites should try to use link.

  • Use @import:
  •     Large portal websites (such as Taobao) linking multiple pages to the same css file will cause a slowdown, @import Style sheets can be transferred into css to facilitate modular management of css.
