I want to include a specific css file that should be applied to the homepage, and 6-7 other pages throughout my site.
I know I can do this via PHP, getting the URL, finding out what page, linking the css...etc, but I was wondering if there was a slick way (or any better way) using CakePHP to include the correct css file(s).
I realize I can link the CSS file from the specific views, but - then they wouldn't be in the <head>
. Is there a way to link from a view and have it show up in the head?
I hope my questions make sense, and greatly appreciate any help.

Yes, they would be in the head. See the HTML Helper documentation:
If key 'inline' is set to false in $options parameter, the link tags are added to the $scripts_for_layout variable which you can print inside the head tag of the document.
So, this snippet in your view...
$this->Html->css('my-css', null, array('inline' => false));
...will add the proper <link>
element to your <head>
.
