[Zope] Cascading Style Sheets in N etscape 6

Fri, 6 Apr 2001 11:33:14 -0400

If the html you sent is exactly what NS6 is seeing, no wonder it doesn't
work. It is invalid html. You have a second <html> document including its
own DOCTYPE and head element,
at the end of the main html document. The wonder is that it every worked.
Fix up your html first, get it working without style sheets or javascript,
then add in a simple style sheet and get it working.

Then you can try to create the real style sheet you want.

I'm not entirely sure if I understand what you mean, but when I do "View
Page
Source" In Netscape 6 the code is reflected as it should be. I know how
fussy
Netscape is about missing HTML tags, but as the CSS work well in Netscape
4.75
I do not understand why it isn't working on Netscape 6, nor do I understand
why
my Java no longer works either. Unfortunately the site in question is on our
intranet so I can't give you a link to it, but this is the code that I get
when
I do "View Page Source" in Netscape 6. There are 3 items that should respond
to
the style sheet - OAA, menus & OAAmenuhead - yet none of them work in
Netscape
6. What confuses me even more is the fact that at the top of my CSS I have
the
line: <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('site_fonts', 'arial, helvetica,
sans-serif')">
and Netscape 6 does recognise this (as it uses that font). It just doesn't
recognise any of the variables I have set up in my style sheet.
