Paul, I am trying out your CSS code here. It works for me when I delete your // comments. I did not realize this was part of the CSS langugage. On Sat, 02 Apr 2016 22:37:29 -0400 "Paul King" <sciguy@vex.net> wrote:
Hi
Sorry if this is off-topic, but I have been scratching my head for hours and have been frustrated with this error. I am writing this code just for myself.
The first stanza in my css code which I moved from HTML to an external css file does not appear to be read at all. This appears to happen whatever the first stanza is, and I have tried moving them around. All other CSS tags are understood, but only if they do not appear in the first stanza. I can give the first two stanzas including the lines above it (all comments). Doesn't look like there is anything wrong here to me, although there is a bit of repetition.
