I've tried pointing the browser at the css file and everthing looks just fine. >You'd be better off not messing with AddType at all to parse .css files >- it's more important that the content-type be "text/css." I used the AddType because I read somewhere that some browsers demanded that the extension be .css. The html that I'm using to load the css files is: <link href="styles/My4CSS.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <style type='text/css'> @import url(styles/MyCSS.css); </style> The reason for the two files is that My4CSS.css contains code that doesn't break Netscape 4 (people are still using that garbage) and MyCSS.css is the code that I want for decent browsers. Just doing the AddType without changing the css files at all breaks things locally. Without a <?php in the file I think that whether it's parsed by php or not shouldn't make any difference -- but it does. >--------------------------------------------------------------------- >michal migurski- contact info and pgp key: >sf/ca http://mike.teczno.com/contact.html
