Example

Link to an external style sheet:

The <link> tag defines the relationship between a document and an external resource.
The <link> tag is most used to link to style sheets.

When used for style sheets, the <link> tag is supported in all major browsers. No real support for anything else.

In HTML the <link> tag has no end tag.
In XHTML the <link> tag must be properly closed.

Note: The link element must be embedded in the head section, and it can appear any number of times.
