Hello all

My problem is when I link in DW using the browse to file or drag to file tool
and test the link in the browser, it can find the page but without the css
styling. I had created a template and then created new pages from this template
and imported the style sheets into each page. I have several absolute links
that work fine but not local links.
thanks

Do you have a URL? Probably be easier to help.

Hello Jo

Thanks for your reply. I have it sorted now. What was happening was my css
styling seemed to lost 'only' when I used the preview browser, so I uploaded it
and everything was fine. I just assumed it would work in preview.

And so it should. You have some sort of problem locally if it isn't.

When I use the preview browser the css pages work fine individually, but when
I try to link them and use the preview browser, the linked page loses its
style. I honestly don't know if this is normal or not.
