drupal_get_css

Returns a themed representation of all stylesheets that should be attached to the page.

It loads the CSS in order, with 'module' first, then 'theme' afterwards. This ensures proper cascading of styles so themes can easily override module styles through CSS selectors.

Themes may replace module-defined CSS files by adding a stylesheet with the same filename. For example, themes/garland/system-menus.css would replace modules/system/system-menus.css. This allows themes to override complete CSS files, rather than specific selectors, when necessary.

If the original CSS file is being overridden by a theme, the theme is responsible for supplying an accompanying RTL CSS file to replace the module's.

Parameters

$css: (optional) An array of CSS files. If no array is provided, the default stylesheets array is used instead.

Return value

A string of XHTML CSS tags.
