Hi Jeremy, A little bit confusing, partly my fault.
I entered txt/css instead of text/css which gave "unreadable" styles, like when there is no type at all. But text/css is not in the list of type to be selected. Mario said: Add it manually. But there is a Plain text (text/plain) entry in the type list which gives the same result. Both text/css and text/plain do show the styles in "readable" form. Is there a difference in types between text/css and text/plain? If there is no difference, change the type to "Plain text (text/css)" That will be less confusing.
