This is the HTML:

<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../css/rpbname.css">
</head>

I open the same code file in each browser.
Chrome, Edge, and DuckDuckGo browsers use my style sheet.
Firefox does not.
I would like to find out why, so I can make it work with Firefox too.

Is that all? What does the CSS look like? unsure.gif

Also, what does the Full HTML look like? unsure.gif

Both are actually required, simply to see what one is doing to the other. IPB Image

Also note that type="text/css" is no longer required in the link element. IPB Image

I added a path to the font directory to the CSS references to font-family. That fixed the font part of the problem.

Adding the path in the CSS fixed the problem in Firefox, but broke the connection in other browsers. I deleted the path so it would still work in the more popular browsers, Chrome and Edge, and decided to live with the problem in Firefox.

However, I noted that Firefox obeys some of the other instructions in my CSS. I don't have the time to sort it all out. So, let's close this thread.

Thanks to those who participated.
