Author Mozilla not loading style sheets when using HTML 4.01 Strict?

Hi,

I have a page done in HTML 4.01 Strict. I've noticed that on Mozilla, it
doesn't load the my external stylesheet, no matter if I attach it via 'link'
or '@import'. I don't want to have to use embedded style sheets. How can I
get around this?

Is your hosting service delivering it as type="text/css"? If not, Gecko
browsers won't treat it as a CSS. (Although they can still read it).

You may need to ask your hosting service to change.

Without a URI to check I'll have to guess.

Configure your webserver to it tells Mozilla that it is a CSS file and not a
plain text file or a point plus file.

How you do this depends on the httpd software you use.
