Hello!
In my design i have used all external files(like header, left menu, footer) and included in the home page and internal pages and applied the CSS to images and the text in header, left menu, footer, but not attached the CSS stylesheet in the header, left menu, footer, because on the main page index and the DWT file i have attached the style sheet. Have i done correct or, is there any other method to call external files on the pages.

Hi vasantarkachari,

Thanks for the CSS. I have validated all of it and it is valid. However, it is still just CSS definitions.

We also need some sample HTML code that uses those CSS that produces the problems you are talking about.

Like I said I dont know jack on css, but how is a line like this valid?...
background-image: url(background-image:url(/images/bg.jpg);
....sure dont look valid to me (missing a closing bracket for starters), wouldnt it just be...
background-image:url(/images/bg.jpg);
....but like I said, I dont know jack.
And like sarjoor said, the HTML would sure help.

I totally agree with PAEz about the background-image lines. The extra "background-image: url(" is definitely an error.

And now I also know why my validation check didn't find that error: I used the wrong validator to check the CSS! To validate your CSS, you can check it at: W3C CSS Validator

Using the correct validator reveals the following issues you should look at for your CSS. Some, like the "background-image" are definitely errors, and some are features depending on which version of CSS you specify.

Code:

12	 body	 Property overflow-x doesn't exist in CSS level 2.1 but exists in : hidden
16	 .t-body	 Value Error : background-image attempt to find a semi-colon before the property name. add it
0	 .t-body	 Value Error : background-image Parse Error null
21	 .btrailbg	 Value Error : background-image attempt to find a semi-colon before the property name. add it
0	 .btrailbg	 Value Error : background-image Parse Error null
26	 .btrail_bg	 Value Error : background-image attempt to find a semi-colon before the property name. add it
0	 .btrail_bg	 Value Error : background-image Parse Error null
36	 .internalbg	 Value Error : background-image attempt to find a semi-colon before the property name. add it
0	 .internalbg	 Value Error : background-image Parse Error null
274	 .header	 Property align doesn't exist : center
331		 The pseudo-element ::hover can't appear here in the context css21 [hover]
414	 .inlinks	 Value Error : color 999999 is not a color value : 999999
420	 .modalBackground	 Parse Error opacity=80)
421	 .modalBackground	 Property opacity doesn't exist in CSS level 2.1 but exists in : 0.8
439	 .searchboxps	 Value Error : font Arial is not a font-size value : Arial,tahoma,Verdana,trebuchet MS

But still, having some sample HTML code that uses those CSS that produces the problems would definitely be helpful.

Thanks to you all guys............thanks for validating the CSS file and finding the errors.

I fixed all the errors you posted. and after fixing all errors, CSS was applied on all my web pages, working perfect in all browsers.

I got one more error,

what does this mean
File not found: http://www.cdacb.in/../Templates/main.css: Forbidden

should it be like this

Templates/main.CSS: Forbidden

please tell me how to fix this.
