The ResourceLinks widget automatically generates the paths to resources, based on the themes.
If you want to use files that are the same for all themes, such as a reset style sheet or global layout style sheet file, you must use the Static property. When you declare a resource as static, the resource is always retrieved from the same location.
You do this by declaring the resource as static and providing a virtual path to it, as in the following example:
Regardless of the currently selected theme, the first file is always retrieved from root/SitefinityExternal/Layout.css location.
You can use static and dynamic files inside of one collection of resources. Resources are registered in the order, in which they are declared. Sitefinity CMS determines the type of resource, based on its extension, and generates the proper markup.
