Styles become inactive when I link the sheet?

    So I've been using the style sheet in the header as I was making my website, and now I want to move them in to a .css file and link to them. The problem is, that certain style elements become inactive and I don't know why.

    This line:

    body {
	background-image: url(http://www.MYSITE.com/files/img/nebula-background.jpg);
}
    Code (markup):
    Wont work (even though the link is absolute and works fine when in the header) when I link to it.

    And on a different page:

    #container {
	width: 760px;
	width: 780px;
	width: 600px;
	border: 1px solid gray;
	margin-left: auto;
	margin-right: auto;
	margin-top: 10px;
	margin-bottom: 10px;
	padding: 5px;
		}
    Code (markup):
    doesn't work.

    Again, both these work fine in the header, but when I copy and paste them in to a .css file these two seem to stop working, while everything else is just fine.

    Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

    Thanks

    URL? Live copy? Without the full code we can't be a whole lot of help.
