Works perfect for me, both ways... think that means your pages can't
FIND the style.css file:
a) put style.css into the SAME directory that contains the page(s) -
makes sense only if all pages are in the same directory.
OR
b) add the file's PATH to the reference:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="[path/to/]style.css" type="text/css"> -
be careful... must point to the correct place of your file!
OR
c) convert to a URL: "http://somehost/[path/to/]style.css" - this is
always safe but consumes an additional browser connection and
increases load time.
Best regards,
Gerhard
