External CSS files

[Jon Perry]

I am trying to link a Web Site to a style sheet, hopefully using :
<link rel="stylesheet" href="blah.css" type="text/css>

This is how my current document reads, and I have a file blah.css.

Unfortunately, this doesn't work. I think the problem is with the .css file,
as I don't actually know how to construct one.

Could anyone please tell me the syntax for an external style sheet.

Take a look at http://www.css.nu/includes/index.html The examples are
external stylesheets, if you have problems after that, repost.

Thanks for the site, but I can't decode the .css files, as they are
corrupted when I read them in Windows 95 Notepad.

Do you know the structure of a .css file?

font-size:10 pt;}

font-style: bold; color: yellow; }
P { font-family: Vedrana, Arial, Helvetica; font-size: 10 pt;
font-color: white; }
BR, UL, OL, TD, LI { font-family: Tresbuchet MS, Arial, Helvetica;
color: white; font-size: 10 pt; }
HR { color: white; width:100% align:center; }
SMALL { font-family: Arial, Helvetica; }
A { font-family:Tresbuchet MS, Arial, Helvetica ; font-style: bold;
text-decoration:none}
A:link { font-family: Tresbuchet MS, Arial, Helvetica; font-style:
bold; color: red; }
A:visited { font-family: Tresbuchet MS, Arial, Helvetica; font-style:

A:active { font-family: Arial, Helvetica; font-style: italic; color:

Thank you. Very informative.

The example I tried, and failed with, was to define an ECSS with classes,
e.g.

.wood { color : brown }
.title { color : red;font-size:18pt;text-decoration:underline}

etc...

When I linked this file to any HTML document, nothing happened.

Could have been a slip somewhere else though.......
