    Hi all,

    I have a web site http://www.offthebeatenpath.ws and recently started using an external CSS file for new pages. Previously, I had done everything inline with HTML4 and Front Page. Everything works great except when I display the new page in Firefox, the main paragraphs are displayed using the default font and spacing. The other classes I use for h1, h2, picture captions, links, etc all work fine. There are no font problems with the inline tags or with other browsers. It’s only the paragraphs in Firefox using the external CSS. I’m stumped but I’ll bet it’s something simple like a character set or a syntax error. I’ve pasted the external CSS below. Any help would be greatly appreciated……. Don in St. Paul

    PS. The affected page is in the Battlefields section and is titled Fort Blakeley-The Last Battle of the Civil War
