You have an extraneous word in your link coding: style.

Re: [css-d] page not working in IE 7 or Vista
thank you all for your recommendations. I willl follow through. I must have looked at the line: link rel=stylesheet href=newindex.css style type=text/css / a thousand times without seeing that style was there twice.

What is working in IE7? Using a Strict or an xHTML doctype should not give you a problem in IE7. I believe that it is good practice to use a Strict doctype as far as possible -- as this will alert you if you use deprecated HTML tags, etc. Best, - Rahul. __ 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/
Re: [css-d] page not working in IE 7 or Vista
I suggest you go to this web site: http://www.w3schools.com/ Start with a Strict doctype (I prefer xhtml). Learn xhtml. Learn CSS. Use external files for CSS and JavaScript. Don't use font tags. I think the above will be helpful to you.
