Hello,

I recently downloaded First Page 2006 and it is a wonderful program, but I am having a hair pulling time trying to get the external css file (created in FP as a css file and saved in the same directory file as the html page) to style the html page.

I created the index.html file and the css file through the "Start Manager". Included both in a "Project". In the css file I used the "insert", "cascading style sheets", "style sheet designer" menu options to create simple font styling. And in the html file used the "insert", "cascading style sheets", "attach/link css file" option, selecting the css file. Saved everything, and it's still un-styled. I have tried using other style sheets that work on other pages, I have manually written the link references, opened in browsers with out Front Page, nothing works.

(I did open an html and external css file written in notepad that was working, and this did function correctly in FP)

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. (by the way, I am using XHTML Strict 1.0)

Thank you!

I have figured it out. The css creator added some html tags that were messing things up, I deleted all html (anything using <>'s) and saved the file. I also moved the css link in the html document to below the <title>, but still inside the <head> elements. Saved changes and it Worked!

Just wanted to let you know the problem was solved.
