CSS Exlusively External

After a great input from Osgood in this group the Media Query response is now perfect. Next thing is to safeguard an exclusive use of an external CSS file for styling to avoid messing up of the current code. This seems difficult to achieve as the system easily reverts to <style> in the source code even though a new css file has been dedicated to the root. Probably easy if you know how?

    1. Working from a defined local site folder,  open your HTML document. 

    2. Go to Tools > CSS > Attach stylesheet > Link and browse to the custom stylesheet in your site folder.

    3. Save HTML document with Ctrl/Cmd + S.

    4. Going forward only edit your stylesheet by clicking on your CSS tab (see screenshot) or opening the CSS file directly from your Files Panel (F8).

     

     

    NOTE:  Coding manually with code hints and auto-code completion is much faster and more precise than using clumsy Designer Panels.
