Question

I see that in development environment in rails 3.1 the css are loaded in alphabetic order and not in the order I want. I want a particular css file to be at the end so it over-writes any styles given to the class before. How can we achieve that?

Answer 1

It is better to specify the order of each and every files manually:

/*
 * This is a manifest file that'll automatically include all the stylesheets available in this directory
 * and any sub-directories. You're free to add application-wide styles to this file and they'll appear at
 * the top of the compiled file, but it's generally better to create a new file per style scope.
 *= require_self
 *= require reset
 *= require groups
 *= require the_last
*
