Validating by URI seems to be a problem. The CSS validator has been acting up of late (server side issues). Validating your stylesheet by inputting it in he textarea works fine <http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/#validate_by_input> and returns two errors and some warnings. One error the validator didn't catch (it gives only a warning, it can't really know better): html, body { .... font: 90%/135% normal verdana, geneva, arial, sans-serif; ... } The validator gives a warning that the font 'normal verdana' should be quoted. I'm pretty sure it is an error in the stylesheet: you probably wanted to write: font: normal 90%/135% verdana, geneva, arial, sans-serif; (the keyword 'normal' upfront where it rightly belongs, as you surely meant font-weight/font-variant/font-style) Philippe --- Philippe Wittenbergh http://l-c-n.com/ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
