If it was the only the external stylesheet that wasn't working, the first thing to do would be to check that Apache is configured to the right content type (text/css) for it and that the PHP code isn't doing anything silly like sending the dynamically-generating the *.css page with a header() declaring a different content type; but with the inline styles also not working, that scenario would either be unlikely or only part of the story. Have the HTML and CSS both been validated yet? If the output of your PHP includes syntactically-flawed HTML, that could lead to problems with the CSS rendering as well. And of course, invalid CSS will not render as expected. This final thought may already be obvious to you, but is there any chance that the styles you're using are either not supported by your browser, or that your page's doctype has accidentally triggered the browser's less-forgiving "standards mode"? (If any of this sounds unfamiliar, you can follow-up with a newsgroup or list where CSS is on-topic, such as <news:comp.infosystems.www.authoring.stylesheets>.) Good luck! -- CC
