hi,

After creating the ControlDemo.aspx in the demo folder.

and added the .TextBox in the stylesheet on p.115
Set the server control textbox cssClass property to TextBox

and I don't see the changes after running it.

I had to move the ControlDemo.aspx out of the Demo folder to the root, run it, and it works.

So how do I get it to work if the web pages are in folders?

Hi there,

Could this be a cache issue? This should work, regardless of where the file is placed. Try reloading the page using Ctrl+F5 or Ctrl+R. And where did you place the CSS?

Cheers,

Imar

Hi Imar,

tried clearing cache, I run it in latest IE 11 and firefox 26.

the CSS file is located just as the book under Styles\Styles.css

This statement was added <link href="Styles/Styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> in the ControlDemo.aspx the same way it is in the default.aspx file, in the head tag.

I tried again and again, and can't figured out why it doesn't work within the Dems folder and only on the root.

Hi Imar,

figured it out...

added "../" to the CSS link

<link href="../Styles/Styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
