Have you tried placing the stylesheet link that is not being applied at 
the top of the list?  If the styles contained in it are applied, then it 
would seem there is some unexpected limitation (or one of the other 
stylesheets has identifiers with great specificity that are overriding 
what the last included stylesheet contains).  And it may be FF and not 
IE.  I haven't checked the W3C to see if there is a specific intentional 
limitation to which the browser is adhering.  If it doesn't work, then 
there is something odd about the file itself (possibly missing a closing 
bracket somewhere that is causing a problem). 

Just a few ideas to further narrow down the possibilities on the issue 
at hand.
