Hi Laura - I'm just guessing here, but suspect that you are previewing your site locally from the file system rather than having the pages served by a web server. When you say href="/dghome6.css" what it is saying is to look for this file in the root directory of the server. One way around this would be to install and run a web server on your local machine. This is a little off topic though as it is not really a CSS issue.
Then again, I could be way off base!

I'm a high school teacher in California who has been put in charge of the Web pages at my site because I am a computer lab teacher. I've used DreamWeaver and FrontPage, but I would like to convert all the pages to CSS since our school site is clunky and slow and I'm tired of hearing all the complaints! This is my first time asking a question. I discovered CSS during a workshop run by Molly Holzschlag last winter. I'm also working through Eric Meyer's book -- "On CSS." I like using CSS but I have run into a snag. Maybe you could help? I have attached an external stylesheet to HTML pages which are all saved in the same folder. When I preview the pages on the Web (Explorer or Netscape), the first page I view has the styles applied. (colors, positions, fonts, etc.) But when I link to another page within the site, the style sheet no longer applies, all I see is the plain HTML. I have attached the stylesheet: <link href="/dghome6.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> to every page. Has this happened to anyone else? Will the stylesheets apply when the pages are uploaded to a server?
