body

This problem seems to occur for anything i include in the

tag as i have also set the default font for my webpage in this tag. It works when the CSS is included directly on the page, but not when loaded externally.Please help!

Hi Go Condo,
Did you see this was a very old thread that's been woken up :¬)

So I finally found the problem in my case. Again I had the same symptom after installing PHP 5.3.
I opened the CSS file from IE and saw an error message from PHP about undefined variable. It looks like from PHP 5.3, you receieve errors about undefined variables. PHP is not smart enough to realize that this is CSS and not HTML in order to prevent the adding of the error message.
I hope it helps.

have you taken the suggestion to use firebug? if you can't see the style being applied when you select the body element can you post a reply showing the section html where the css stylesheet is loaded. if possible provide a link to your site
I had the same problem after installing PHP 5.3. When I used PHP 5.2 the body part of my css worked, but when I switched to PHP 5.3 it stopped working. I had the same symptom as you - the background was ignored/white.
I corrected the problem by created a dummy div before the body. You can check it on my Condo Toronto website It looks to me like abug.
Again, make sure the body is not the first defintion in your css. Let me know if it worked.

Few things I would check right away:
1) make sure there is no in-line CSS rule set in your or tags, as these override rules from external stylesheets.
2) make sure you don't have rules for BODY or HTML in the
