Not reading stylesheet

[malcolmcroucher]

Hi :

I am using this :
<ink rel = "stylesheet" href="mystyle.css">

Css name : mystyle.css
it is in the same folder as the html page

i have tried using directories such as
c:\test\mystyle.css

I have tried the other way as well but i am just not reading the style sheet .

Any suggestions?

Have you tried?

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

If you put the css in style tag on the page does it work?

Change the body background color in the CSS and see if it changes in the HTML.

Sometimes when I'm makeing up a new external stylesheet it doesn't appear to be linking. I change the background color and it changes in the HTML. I then realise Im missing a } or ;.

It happens 60% of the time when I start a new stylesheet.

works perfectly when I remove the css page and place it it the html page .

When i put the "text/css" it made some changes but not working as well when i subsitituted the Css page.

I will continue looking on the net and trying new ideas.

Thanks so far

The original post says

c:\test\mystyle.css

Are you doing this locally or on a host?
Have you tried importing [htmlhelp.com]
