Limitations of CSS Files in IE

Posted on | November 25, 2008 | No Comments

If you didn’t know already, IE puts a limit on stylesheet file sizes to cap off at 288Kb. Another limitation I learned from Martin Ivanov’s post is that IE limits the number of stylesheets loaded via link tag or @import to 32 files.

Make use of compression and minification if you’ve got large files and lots of ‘em. Besides, your styles should be reusable so you won’t have gigantic files.
