css() is a helper function used when referencing a css file within a theme, and commonly included within a theme's header.php file. It returns the path to a css file located in the css folder of that theme, usually located in themes/YourTheme/css.
Note: Starting with Omeka 1.3, the queue_css helper is preferred to this one for most use cases.

css($file, $dir = 'css')
Arguments
- $file (string) (required) The name of the file to be included. Do not include the .css extension.
- $dir (string) (optional, default: 'css') The name of the directory from which the file should be included.

Example(s)
