Hey guys, we all know that Google caches the HTML of pages, but does it cache the corresponding CSS as well? I ask because a site I used to have and have since closed down is still in the cache and there's a CSS setup I had on it that I need to replicate on another site now. I can view the cached HTML but that doesn't help me because I don't remember what I did with the CSS.

So, does Google cache the CSS and if so, how do I view it? For those who will ask why I don't just look at my source code for the other site, I don't currently have it on my laptop and I'm not quite sure where the archive is at the moment...

No. Viewing the source to a site that Google has cached, there is no indication that the CSS, JS, or any images are cached. I tested this by turning off one of my sites, and then looking at the cached version in Google -- it showed just the HTML, without any stylesheets, JavaScript, images, or other externally linked files.

I don't know the answer to your question, but if Google doesn't, the wayback machine might.
