My CSS file won''t show (even though everything says it should)

i can''t get my app to use my css file (unless i remove the !DOCTYPE).
in development mode with webrick i don''t have this problem, only here
in production with mod_rails:

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName mysite.com
  ServerAlias www.mysite.com
  DocumentRoot /services/httpd/mysite.com/public
  <Directory "/services/httpd/mysite.com/public"> # give apache
access
to the public/ folder..
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
  </Directory>
  RailsBaseURI /
</VirtualHost>

i call my stylesheet like this:

<%= stylesheet_link_tag ''display'' %>

which ends up looking like:

<link href="/stylesheets/display.css?1208424886"
media="screen"
rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

i can access http://www.mysite.com/stylesheets/display.css just fine.

i just don''t get it...

by removing <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://
www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> from my header though, everything
works, but i''m not removing my doctype...

thanks.

Re: My CSS file won''t show (even though everything says it should)

is it possible that HTML4 would not like the self-closed <link /> tag?
try hard coding a
<link href="/stylesheets/display.css?1208424886"
media="screen"
rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"></link>

or using a more up to date doctype (e.g. XHTML 1 transitional) and see
if that makes and difference

Try clearing your sessions and/or restarting your server.  (Who
knows.)

Re: My CSS file won''t show (even though everything says it should)

Hi, I would recommend checking your HTML against the following:
http://validator.w3.org/check

Next, is there a particular reason why you''re not using XHTML?

Good luck,

-Conrad

Re: My CSS file won''t show (even though everything says it should)

No, no reason, I just switched to XHTML now :)

Problem fixed though, turned out to be a lack of mod_mime in Apache.

Thanks!
