does it matter at all what order the or
or
tags are in in the
One important thing to note: if you're using the Internet Explorer meta X-UA-Compatible tag to switch rendering modes for IE, it needs to be the first thing in the HEAD:
<head> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" /> <title>Page title</title> ...etc </head>
It is usually recommended to have the <script>
tag as lower down the page as possible (not in the head but in the body).
Other than that, I don't think it makes much of a difference because the body cannot be parsed unless you have the <head>
section completely loaded. And, you want your <link>
tag to be in the head as you want your styling to occur as the browser renders your page and not after that!
