How to load CSS using jquery

Question

Hi ,

I have loaded a css file on server so I am having a URL with me. How can i load it in my perl code using JQuery ?

So currently I am hardcoding the css in my mason page which is missing from the page something like this

JQ.onReady('show', function(){
    JQ.addStyles({styles: ["\n\n.ap_classic { border-top:1px solid #ccc;border-left:1px solid #ccc;border-bottom:1px solid #2F2F1D; border-right:1px solid   #2F2F1D;background-color:#EFEDD4;padding:3px; }  .ap_classic .ap_titlebar { color:#86875D;font-size:12px;padding:0 0 3px 0;line-height:1em; }  .ap_classic .ap_close { float:right; }  .ap_classic .ap_content { clear:both;background-color:white;border:1px solid #ACA976;padding:8px;font-size:11px; } "]});
});

I want to avoid hardcoding this css ?

I don't get why you can not just insert the <link/> element in the <head/> section, but here's a jQuery snippet:

$('head').append( $('<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />').attr('href', 'your stylesheet url') );
