    "Can't get it to work" is not very helpful. What code have you written? What's the output you get? The docs say start_html(-style=>{src=>"style.css"}) does it, and indeed that works for me.

    This probably isn't the kind of solution you were looking for, but what's wrong with the following?

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css">

    It's all in your <head>.

    /me rolls his own, at least for DOCTYPE and HEAD.
