external stylesheet problem

I can display a page with 5 different stylesheets on my IE or
whichever browser locally, no need for a server.

KMA.

BTW, you are correct, I was not. Setup problem.

If you were wrong, then what's the "KMA" for?

I am neither a troll, nor clueless. Just mistaken.

O.K. I've partially solved my problem. When I created my '.css' file I used
Notepad saving it as 'styles.css' and type Text Document. Apparently there's
a hidden '.txt' extension at the end of the file because when I change my
link line to:

<LINK REL="stylesheet" TYPE="text/css" HREF="styles.css.txt>"

the styles show up when I view the html file in IE6 browser.

New question: How do I create a '.css' file without the '.txt' extension?

I created an external stylesheet file 'styles.css' and an html file that
includes the line:

LINK REL="stylesheet" TYPE="text/css" HREF="styles.css>"

Both the .css file and the html file reside on my local PC. When I open
the
html file with IE6 the styles are not seen in the webpage. Everything
looks
fine if I upload the .css and html files to my web server.

Any ideas on why the styles don't appear on my local PC?

Don't select type "Text Document". Instead select "All files".
Plus you might want to switch on the visibility of all
extensions. Might just save you from opening an attachment
called openme.txt.exe...
