[thelist] css is not loaded with page in Firefox

FYI, it's happening in Mozilla 1.7 and Netscape 7.2 and Firefox 1.0 from
my machine. The styles render fine in Opera and IE. Oh and I have an
install of Netscape 4.7. If you think you may have any users with that
browser you may want to @import the style sheet. The styles load and
it's NOT pretty : ).

I know...it's been doing that to me from time to time as well. This
happened
to you in Firefox right?  It works perfectly in IE which I don't
understand
at all.

I have restarted the web server. Maybe reboot the whole box?

It is a single non-clustered server.

I've been doing some research and apparently this problem is generally
fixed
by added "text/css css" to the mime.type file used by apache. This
entry is
already in the file...so that leaves me scratching my head.

Your web server software is more than a little dodgy.. I just got your
index.html served as plain text.

If this can happen intermittently to html it will certainly happen to
CSS
too.

Reboot server ?

Is it a single non-clustered server?
