I've created a custom component with a dashboard that needs styling with CSS. I've created the CSS file and I'm looking at calling for it in the frontend view. 

Working with J! 3.6.5 and a MVCMVC developed component obviously I'm confident that I need to place the following code in an appropriate place:

JHtml::_('stylesheet', 'com_mycomponent/css/dashboard.css');

My best guess was to put it between the "public function display""public function display" lines in my "view.html.php""view.html.php" file. However, this does not working so I'm doing it wrong.

Please help!
