Question

CSS generated via PHP ignored in Firefox but works in Chrome, IE8

Answer 1

+5 A:

The most likely cause is that you are using PHP's default Content-Type output of text/html so Firefox thinks:

This is a stylesheet written in HTML, a stylesheet language I don't understand and will therefore ignore.

The other browsers are, presumably, compensating for the error.

Add:

header('Content-type: text/css');

tried and it doesn't change anything...

the "header" should go right at the top of the script right? because looking at firebug i'm allways getting "Content-Type text/plain;charset=windows1250"

I presume you added this to the top of `style.php`? **Edit:** yes, of course you should :)

yes i added... but there was an error on my side where firefox fetched the page from the cache ... now i'm getting the right headers but the css is still ignored by firefox and even firebug doesn't see anything

i used "header('Content-type: text/css; charset=utf-8');" and it works. Thank you very much

Answer 2

A:

What do you see if you make a direct request (e.g. via your web browser) for app/style.php?PageID=224&Admin= ? Can you debug the response using Firebug?
