Actually, the @import was one of my desperate random efforts to make it work.
Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or me?

The console in Firefox claims that it didn't load it because the MIME type was text/plain, not text/css.
I love the Firefox console in a big way.
Edited to add, this looks like the web server is returning the wrong MIME type for the file, since you're declaring it as text/css. Not sure why that would happen.
I checked with the Unix command line tool wget and the Jackson server is claiming the type is text/plain, whereas buffistas claims style sheets are text/css.

You'd think that forcing the type to be text/css via the link command I used above would work, no?

It looks like I'm going to have to change .htaccess in Apache. I'm trying that now. I'm about to pound a hole in my desk with my head.

The dynamic HTML book I have claims that the type in the link tag is just telling the browser what to expect. It looks like Firefox is getting pissy about being lied to. Safari says "Like, whatever".
It seems odd to me that the web server isn't already configured to return text/css for files ending in .css.

Oh, read this for an easier way around the problem.

It's not odd when your hosting company is insane. We're moving the site next week to a dedicated server. At least all the weirdness will then be our fault.

Daniel, thanks for the reply. Sorry I stepped away...all day. Basically, having the upgrade be so tedious was the final hammer blow on a nail of frustration that I've been pounding on for awhile now. I lost it, then pulled myself together and decided to wait until after hostig my rpg today...one of the players is an electronics genius. As a result, I'm good to go! And a bit overwhelmed by having all these new toys to play with...
Sorry for the fruitless venting. And thanks for the support.

Hey, now that I'm loading all this new stuff...especially the newest versions of things...does it make sense to uninstall anything? The old OS...Works, etc.
