Hi,

I have a simple html page. When I view this page using Internet Explorer 8, it shows also style. But when I view it using Google Chrome or Firefox, style does not appear. Can you help me why ? What am I doing wrong ?

HTML File:

<html>
<head>
HEAD SECTION
<!--<link type="text/css" href="txt.css" rel="stylesheet"/>-->
<style type="text/css">
 @import url("txt.css");
</style>
</head>

<body>
<div class="clsverdana">Html new starts here...</div>
<div id ="divId">Html new ends here...</div>
</body>
</html>

CSS File:

CSS

.clsverdana
{
 font-family = verdana;
 font-size = 16;
 font-weight = bold;
 color = orange;
}

#divId
{
 font-family=Tahoma;
 font-size= 16;
 font-weight = bold;
 color = purple;
}

body
{
 background-color=blue;
}

Your style sheet was not in the correct format. See my updated answer.
Now it works in FireFox and IE8.

Don't use the style tag and "@import" it isn't supported in FireFox use this inside the <<head>> tag:

XML

<head>
...
<link rel="stylesheet" media="screen" href="corporate-screen.css" type="text/css"/>
...
</head>

CSS

.clsverdana
{
    font-family: verdana;
    font-size: 16px;
    font-weight: bold;
    color: orange;
}

#divId
{
    font-family: Tahoma;
    font-size: 16px;
    font-weight: bold;
    color: purple;
}

body
{
    background-color: blue;
}

I have changed but style does not still appear.

Did you change your css as well? Note that the "=" signs have been replaced by ":".
If you apply both changes it works very well. ie the ":" in the css and <link> instead of <style>.
I vote 5 for Manfred solution.

Thanks, Valery! I spotted that with the "=" at second glance. The first version of my answer had not yet included the corrected stylesheet. :)

Thanks. I replaced = with :. It works now.
