function drupal_aggregate_css

Default callback to aggregate CSS files and inline content.

Having the browser load fewer CSS files results in much faster page loads than when it loads many small files. This function aggregates files within the same group into a single file unless the site-wide setting to do so is disabled (commonly the case during site development). To optimize download, it also compresses the aggregate files by removing comments, whitespace, and other unnecessary content. Additionally, this functions aggregates inline content together, regardless of the site-wide aggregation setting.

Parameters

$css_groups: An array of CSS groups as returned by drupal_group_css(). This function modifies the group's 'data' property for each group that is aggregated.
