Right now I link to my stylesheet with this code on all my pages:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="style1.css" type="text/css">

I have several directories, and using the above code requires that I
place the stylesheet into each directory...

How can I change the href path so that I need to place the stylesheet
into only my root directory?

The same way you would for any other link.

href="../style1.css" to refer to a stylesheet one level higher up,
etc.
Or href="/style1.css" to refer to a stylesheet in the site root.

This I am not familiar with... putting "two dots" before the forward
slash... is this explained anywhere?

This is what I figured to be the way to reference the root directory,
and I have now made all the changes to my pages, to reflect this path...

Thanks....

It means the same as it does in Windows, and DOS, and UNIX, and most other
OS out there.
