Hey, everything is ok, besides the face and size of the font on my pages. I initially only had these attributes in the body tag but then i added them to the table too:

<style>
body {
margin: 0;
background-color: #000000;
scrollbar-face-color: #000000;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-track-color: #000000;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #000000;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #000000;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #000000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #000000;
font-face: Arial;
text-size: 8pt;
color: #ffffff;
}
a {
text-decoration: none;
}
a:link,a:visited {
color: #c0c0c0;
}
a:active {
color: #ffffff;
}
table {
font-face: Arial;
text-size: 8pt;
color: #ffffff;
}
</style>

in the body style text-size: 8pt; is not valid CSS so is probably throwing errors up and some styles past that may be ignored.


font-size: 8pt; is correct




Chris.

Indifference will be the downfall of mankind, but who cares?

I have known some browsers (namely IE 5 on the Mac) to be remarkably stubborn when it comes to refreshing CSS information.
If you find that changes you have made to your CSS don't seem to be working then quit the browser and reopen it.

Yeah i've also had problems with IE 5.5 (on windows 2k) and the refreshing of linked CSS stylesheets. :(

If the change you made doesn't seem to have been reflected in the page after you do a full refresh (in IE try ctrl + F5), close & reopen a new IE and then reload the page.

Its a pain .. any other tips about it would be welcome (IE 6 seems to work fine with ctrl + F5 though)


Posting code? Wrap it with code tags: [ignore]
Code: 
[/ignore][code]CodeHere
[ignore][/code][/ignore].
