What steps can be taken to ensure that CSS files are properly linked and loaded in PHP-generated web pages?

To ensure that CSS files are properly linked and loaded in PHP-generated web pages, you can use the HTML <link> tag within the PHP code to include the CSS file. Make sure the path to the CSS file is correct and accessible from the PHP file.

&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;
&lt;html&gt;
&lt;head&gt;
    &lt;title&gt;My PHP Page&lt;/title&gt;
    &lt;link rel=&quot;stylesheet&quot; type=&quot;text/css&quot; href=&quot;styles.css&quot;&gt;
&lt;/head&gt;
&lt;body&gt;
    &lt;?php
    // Your PHP code here
    ?&gt;
&lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;
