Dear Friends,

231,248 PointsThe "rel" stands for "relationship", and indicates how the item being linked to is related to the containing document. "Stylesheet" is just one of several possible relationships.
When "rel" is "stylesheet", it is recommended to omit "type" since "text/css" is implied by the relationship.
