I've got a project I'm doing for work that's going to be distributed via CD. When the page loads from a CD the stylesheet isn't getting read for some reason. I'm using a relative url when I link the stylesheet, should I switch that to an absolute URL or am I going to have to use an embedded stylesheet?

...it *should* work fine as relative...

are you trying to php it?
are you trying to @import on a bad browser?

I've never heard of anyone having this problem, but then I don't remember hearing of anyone putting their web page on a CD.

What's the relative link? Why don't you paste us the whole link tag? Or maybe the whole head of the document? It's hard to say if it's your fault or just an IE quirk. Did you test it in different browsers?

It works in every browser I've tried it in, even IE 4.0, it works perfectly. It's just a simple:

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

Oh, ok, so it's in the same directory.

What do you mean it works perfectly in every browser you tried? Do you mean when it's *not* on the CD? What does it not work in when it *is* on the CD?

It works just fine when run locally off my harddrive or off my company's network. It won't load from the CD on IE 4.0 which is what we need it to run on because of how the drives are built for the systems the CD is designed for.

Oh... sounds like an IE 4 bug in that case, especially if it works fine in IE 5+. You might have to use an inline style sheet =\
