Siobhan,
I wasn't following this thread 100%, so I don't know how completely the
@import method was explained. Basically, only the more recent, semi
standards compliant browsers will recognize "@import". Using this method of
importing your style sheet is a handy way to hide certain styles from older
browsers which may cause them to choke. If I do want to supply NN4x with
some basic style, and feed the more complex styles to compliant browsers, I
do this:
<link href="basic_style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<style type="text/css">
@import url(advanced_style.css);
</style>
Make sure you place the "@import url(advanced_style.css)" second, because
what you're doing is redefining the style rules for compliant browsers,
which were first set in "basic_style.css".

For Netscape 4x, you'll need to define your font characteristics for every
kind of block level container you might put text into. So:
body, p, div, td {
font-family:Verdana, Arial, Sans-serif;
font-size:11pt;
color:#000000;
line-height:14pt;
text-align:left;}
