style sheets in Netscape 7

[peterswan]

Hello,

Does anyone know why my style sheets aren't showing up in Netscape 7, but are fine in IE?

Thanks for any help,



Peter

Peter,

Although it is entirely possible that Lord Elvis has decreed your stylesheets be Not Visible, I cannot know for sure. I should inform you that my Mind Reading certificate has expired.

So, there is a line in your code that specifies your stylesheet. Please copy that line from your code to here.

Or pray to Elvis for guidance. He is, after all, still the King.

Cheers,


Edward

Hi Edward,

Here it is:

<link rel=&quot;stylesheet&quot; href=&quot;style.css&quot; type=&quot;text/css&quot;>

Nothing at all in here about Elvis.

Is the name of your stylesheet &quot;style.css&quot; or &quot;Style.css&quot; or &quot;Style.CSS&quot; or any other case-insensitive permutation of these letters? IE is promiscuous about case, but most other browsers (and most servers) know the difference between &quot;style.css&quot; and &quot;Style.css&quot; and won't confuse 'em.

Is the stylesheet in the exact same directory as the index.html file from which the above code is extracted?

Cheers,


Edward

And, although it ought not to matter, you might consider closing that tag:

<link rel=&quot;stylesheet&quot; href=&quot;style.css&quot; type=&quot;text/css&quot;></link>

Just keeping the ducks in a row...

Cheers,

Hi Edward,

Yes, I spelled it correctly, including case. It is named &quot;style.css&quot; and is located in the same folder as the index.html file.

Again, it looks fine on IE but none of the style sheet information shows up in Netscape 7.

Here is the code for the style sheet page:

body{
margin-left: 1 px;
margin-top: 0 px;
}
input {
font-size: 8 pt;
}
body{
margin-top: 0 px;
}
.services_box{
font-size: 10 pt;
font-family: verdana;
padding: 5 px;
color: white;
}
.copyright{
font-size: 7 pt;
font-family: verdana;
}

Thanks,

This issue has been solved at

The solution was to take out the space between the number and the unit. So 10 pt becomes 10pt.

And now it works fine in both Netscape and IE.

Much thanks to Edward for his help.

I do think Elvis had something to do with it.
