CSS Problem when Posting to Web Server

    I have developed a website locally using css and html. When I view the site locally, using IE 6 or Firefox, the site looks great. Once I post it to the web, Firefox still renders it perfectly, but IE 6 does not seem to be playing well with the CSS. Some of the styles are there, but not all. The positioning is way out of whack too.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Thank you in advance!

    Where's the site? Can you give us a URL?

    Check your paths. They have to be URL paths (e.g. dir1/dir2/file.ext, /dir1/dir2/file.ext or http:// site/path/file.ext), not physical paths (e.g. c:\dir1\dir2\file.ext). Also, check if you are using the file scheme - file:///c:/path/file.ext. Finally, IE is known to misinterpret paths with spaces, especially if you use frames - check if you have any of those.

    Might want to check whats hearders your server is sending too. If the header is not "text/css" for CSS files, it can potentially cause problems.
