Reference CSS file in my includes/header.php

Question

I have a header.php file that is called in all the pages. This header file contains a menu bar. The menu bar has been modified and the new item includes opening a pop-up div on click. This div reference a few css and javascript files. How can I add these files to the header considering I cannot have a head tag in the header.php file. The solution that has failed to work is:

<style>
<?php include '../../css/base.css'; ?>
</style>

If header.php is called in all the pages, then why don't you include that css in head tag. — Irfan Ahmed

@IrfanAhmed I cannot have a head tab in my header.php because this is called in all files that already have a head tag — Sarah

Link to an external CSS and Javascript file, they don't need to be in the <head> section.

To add css use

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="path/to/your/css/file">

To add javascript

 <script src="path/to/your/js/file"></script>
