Style Sheet not Loading

Permalink
Well, this is frustrating. This afternoon, my main style sheet (like main.css, but named something else) stopped loading in Firefox and IE. It looks fine in Chrome. It looked fine in everything earlier.

So, I restored a backup from last night and still no dice.

Here are the weird things:

1. It's not just me, so it's not my browser's cache. People who have never seen the site before (like bluehost support) see what I'm seeing.

2. It only affects the pages (full.php, home.php, etc), the stylesheet does render in the header!

Any ideas???

I've had this problem but with Network Solutions in the past... where the permissions on the server had been messed up.
What ended up happening was any CSS file stopped loading.
They reset the permissions on the server and it went back to normal.
I guess it happened when we added another user to the main control panel for the hosting account.
Not sure if this is the same issue, but worth a check...

Hi Susannah,

If you could share a URL, it would empower us to look at your source and further debug the issue.

Thanks,

It's resolved.
It was a class in the style sheet I wasn't using. I took it out and all was well. I don't know why==

That kind of makes sense. Certain browsers use different methods to parse CSS. Some browsers were probably finding a way to resolve the issue internally while others were just barfing.

Glad you got it fixed.
