For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. PHP doesn't parse the HTML that is output, nor does it handle style sheets. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-09-10 20:51:23] scratch65535 at att dot net Description: ------------ Using HTML 5's <!DOCTYPE html> with <link>'d css file seems to cause php to fail to read the css, or fail to pass it to the interpreter in Firefox 32 and Opera 24.0.1558.53 under XP, and Firefox 17.0. under FreeBSD 9.2 Firebug sees the <link> reference but believes the file is empty. Removing the doctype reference restores the css file's effect. Using an html 4 doctype reference doesn't disable the css styling. Including the css code in the <head> produces styled output regardless of whether doctype html is present. Test script: --------------- .Bkgd { background-color:#990000; color:#FFFFFF; padding:30px; margin-top:50px } ======================== <?php echo // '<!DOCTYPE html>'. '<html> <head> <meta HTTP-EQUIV="content-type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=ISO8859-1"></meta> <link href="_____html5test.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" ></link> </head> <body> <div class="Bkgd"> Hello world </div> </body> </html>' ; ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=68003&edit=1
