I've got a css file called blue.css code below:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
body { background-color: #003A4D;
background-image: url(pictures/background450x500.jpg);
color: #A8BAff;
font-family: haettenschweiler, tahoma, courier; }
-->
</style>


When I link to this from a HTML page it works fine in IE but not in Firefox. Basic HTML:

<html>
<head>
<title>test</title>
<LINK REL="stylesheet" TYPE="text/css" HREF="blue.css" />
</head>
<body>
blah blah blah
</body>
</html>

Can anyone show me where I'm going wrong. I'm sure it's blatently obvious.

Cheers

The CSS file needs to be in this format:

Code:
body {position: absolute;
	margin-left: 5px;
	margin-top: 5px;
}

No need for this:

Code:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
&
-->

when using external style sheets

 
Cheers dmears, works a treat.
