Do a sans-serif or serif as the last specified font.
Congratulations!
Valid CSS!This document validates as CSS!
Is what I get when I validate the CSS directly, or through the site!!
Dunno what's going on. I quickly checked and you've got a generic font
on the 3 font-families. I'd just say it's the validator being stupid.

Look at the last rule in your CSS where you have Sans Serif instead of the
generic sans-serif.
Chances are that's what the validator was looking at (Line : 0 obviously
doesn't tell us anything).
Just a heads up, always look for No errors or warnings. You can get the
congrats but still have warnings if you scroll down. Jackie's concern was a
warning even though it was valid css.

Congratulations!

Thank, thank, thank you everyone...it works now... i must have scoured
through that code for hours yesterday... a severe case of not seeing the
wood for the trees.
All fixed with your help thanks again
