@import style sheet from external style sheet

I am following the CSS Foundations which was going well until I tried to import the a style sheet from an external style sheet. It worked when I did it from an internal style sheet.

    @import 'more-styles.css';

    h1 {
        color: white;
    background-color: #E14607;
    }

    h2 {
    color: steelblue;
    padding-bottom: 10px;
    border-bottom: 2px dotted;

    }

    ul {
    color: white;
    background-color: steelblue;
    }

Any ideas?

Sounds like a file path issue, are your html & CSS files in the same folder?

I just figured it out, thanks! It was a file path issue.

I somehow had two style.css files in different places.

Thanks again, Sean
