cooper -> CSS having no effect on FP Includes files (8/20/2003 22:27:09)

I am using the following as an external CSS for my site...

quote:

body, p {font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica;
font-size: 10pt}

a:link {
text-decoration: none;
color: #7E1718;
background: transparent;
}

a:visited {
text-decoration: underline;
color: #666666;
background: transparent;
}

a:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
color: #7E1718;
background: transparent;
}

a:active {
text-decoration: none;
color: #CC0000;
background: transparent;
}


I have the header, footer and a breakout box on the page as "includes pages" but the CSS does not seem to effect these pages. What am I missing?

Got a URL?

Are you using FP's includes or SSI?

Gil,

I have not published yet. I am using FP Includes, not server side.

Just a thought.

Do you have your includes in a separate folder? If so, you have to add an extra bit of code such as:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../name.css">


As opposed to:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="name.css">

The start of the site can be seen at http://www.bacwebdesign.com/red_swish/

I do have the Includes pages in an "includes" folder and I had the ../ at the start of the link to the style.css page.

Any other ideas?

Any other ideas? Yup! Your inline styles are overriding the external styles. On that page you provided as an example, you have styles in your <body> tag that will override any external styles being referenced.

Also, you are using a theme. I've never used them but I believe theme styles will override external referenced styles too.
