methods for linking style sheets

[evan]

I have been using this to link my css to my html:


<link href="basic.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

While looking at a site that describes css techniques I can across this:


<style type="text/css" media="screen"><!--
@import url(modern.css) screen;
--></style>

I never used it -has anyone used it and why?

This article explains it quite well: http://webdesign.about.com/od/beginningcss/f/css_import_link.htm (http://webdesign.about.com/od/beginningcss/f/css_import_link.htm)
