PowerStore3 CSS NOT displaying

PowerStore3 CSS NOT displaying

I just installed PowerStore3 and the CSS is not working on Mac & PC FireFox but does work on Mac & PC Safari and PC IE 7.0. Have tried any other platforms and browsers yet. All of the files in the CSS directory are on the server and I've tried replacing all of them but still have same result. I used crossbrowsertesting.com to test browsers and platforms.

address is PowerStore300/

Any help is appreciated.

It looks like your server is incorrectly sending CSS files over as PHP files. I used Chrome on my mac and this is what showed up in the error console.

cssResource interpreted as stylesheet but transferred with MIME type application/x-httpd-php. -- common.css

If i try to browse to the css file directly it doesn't load for me like normal and instead tries to download. I would contact your host and ask them to fix the web server to serve up CSS files correctly. It probably works on Firefox since they are ignoring the server and just assuming its css based on the .css file extension.

Hi Justin,

Thanks for the response. I'm using GoDaddy for hosting and this is the first time I've run into this. Have you run into this with their hosting before?

I haven't noticed an issue like this before. They should be able to help you out if you contact their support and explain the situation and include the error message.

Hi Jason

I was curious and change the css links in the index.php from this:

<style type="text/css" media="all">
<!--
@import url("css/common.css");
-->
</style>
<style type="text/css" media="all">
<!--
@import url("css/home.css");
-->
</style>
<style type="text/css" media="print">
<!--
@import url("css/home_print.css");
-->
</style>


to:


<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/common.css" media="screen" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/home.css" media="screen" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/home_print.css" media="print" />

and FireFox was able to display the styles. Why is that? I don't know enough about to understand what the difference is and why FF perfers one over the other. Is this still a GoDaddy issue?

Thanks I appreciate your time.

I mean Justin, sorry about that.

I actually just ran into a similar issue myself. Link tags are sometimes needed to allow Javascript on the page to detect the styles correctly. It does seem to be an issue with the host, but if changing to link tags does the trick I would just stick with that. Thanks for reporting back.

Hey,

Just figured it out. It was a server issue , not sure why, I had to do a .htaccess with AddType text/css .css placed in it. Seems to be working now. Thanks for your help I appreciate it.
