I was just sent an email and pic of my site on the mac..apparently the hooking up of all my sites to a CSS page has made it almost impossible to see using the mac. This is so disturbing...doesn't the mac support css?

I'm running IE5 on a Mac and have never observed a problem with it's rendering any type of CSS formating.

That said, this is the second report I've seen here of it happening.

What browser is it displaying poorly in?

IE 5.2 has some difficulties, mainly with more 'advanced' stuff like changing the default type of an element.

Display: block;

on images has been known (in my experience) to render the image invisible...

Here's what looks like a quite complete list of CSS Bugs in IE5 Mac [macedition.com]

I recommend that you try to validate your CSS.

[jigsaw.w3.org...]

Also visit [developer.apple.com...]
(Thanks to jimbo_mac)

P.S. Not about the platform, it's about the browser. Wich browser was used on the Mac?

RE: browser ver...I don't know yet...

I had confirmation that it renders, but the issue is that the CSS colors are not showing up and [edited I to say:]they[/edit] get a blue text over a blue background...

Okay, find out what browser, if it is IE5 then check those links above.

If you still can't work it out, please come back and give some details, nothing like a good mystery ;)
