SYMPTOMS
Consider the following scenario. You create an HTML page. The HTML page code references a CSS style sheet. The first CSS style sheet uses an @import rule to reference a second CSS style sheet.

You run a program that uses a Web browser control to iterate through the IHTMLStyleSheetsCollection interface for the HTML page.
