Yes, given equal specficity.
For example:
External style sheet says:
#navbar ul li a:hover {color:red;}
while Internal style sheet says:
a:hover{ color:green;}
Now, if I understand the cascade properly (and there's always a chance I
don't) the links that are part of an unordered list in #navbar will
color themselves red when hovered over, because the external style sheet
code is more specific than the internal.
Have fun,
Arlen
