User Control

You can give the link to CSS file in user control in the same way as you do it on Page, but it is not advisable to do that, because user control intended to be used on different pages, which can have different physical location, or the hierarchy in which page is located in your application might be different, so the relative path of CSS file will also be different for different pages.

So if you want to do so it is better to provide the path of CSS from the code behind of the user control like this:

System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlLink style = new System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlLink();

style.Attributes.Add("href", "");//Path can be created by contcatinating Application Virtual Path + your custom path

style.Attributes.Add("type", "text/css");

style.Attributes.Add("rel", "stylesheet");

Page.Header.Controls.Add(style);

Try this code on Page Load.
