the html 4.01 standard says i can use:
<link type="text/css" href=file-name>
to include a style section. questions:
1. does the external style sheet have to contain <html> ... </html>?
2. does it have to contain <style> ... </style>?
3. is <link> recognized within html page <style>?
4. is the <link href> a relative url, i.e., just a file name, or must it be
fully qualified?
finally could you post a working tag example that includes an external style
sheet in your html? thanks.

No, it doesn't. href must be an URI.
to include a style section.
to include external style sheets.
questions:
1. does the external style sheet have to contain <html> ... </html>?
No, that's not CSS.
2. does it have to contain <style> ... </style>?
No, that's not CSS.
3. is <link> recognized within html page <style>?
What does the HTML 4.01 spec say?
4. is the <link href> a relative url, i.e., just a file name, or must it be
fully qualified?
It must be an URI.

foo.html:
<html>
<head>
<title>foo</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="foo.css">
</head>
<body>
<h1>foo</h1>
</body>
</html>
fo.css:
h1 {
color: #f00;

Not quite. It's href="URL" not href=file-name. The style sheet can
be anywhere.

1. does the external style sheet have to contain <html> ... </html>?
On the contrary, it must not.
2. does it have to contain <style> ... </style>?
On the contrary, it must not.
3. is <link> recognized within html page <style>?
No.
4. is the <link href> a relative url, i.e., just a file name, or must it be
fully qualified?
It is a URL, which could be relative or absolute. You seem to think
that "relative URL" = "file name", and that is not true at all.
"../../abc/def/xyz.css" is a relative URL.

sheet in your html? thanks.
