Your server is erroneously sending the CSS as text/html, which is the wrong MIME type 
as it should be text/css.
 
Check your server config.
 
p.s.: apologies if this formats wrong...outlook web client is buggy

RE: [WSG] What tha!? (CSS not rendering in Mozilla)

Peter,

I have had a similar problem with the BHP Billiton site recently. It
looks like the server does not have the mime type for CSS set
correctly.

In Mozilla, if you select Tools, Web Development, then Javascript
Console, you should see an error message reading:

Error: The stylesheet http://www.cinema4duser.com/css/main.css was
not loaded because its MIME type, text/html, is not text/css.

This is a problem on the server end, where they either don't have the
experience or the knowledge to set up mime types properly. I woulod
hazard a guess and say that the CSS mime type is set to
text/x-pointplus.

I just checked my site 
www.cinema4duser.com in Mozilla and it wasn't applying CSS. 

have 
you validated your CSS?
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/

I find 
that if part of the CSS is invalid, Mozilla ignores the wholething. 
Sometimes even a single line will crash it.
Try 
commenting out chunks of the CSS to see if you have a problematic 
line.
