Various pages at www.city.ac.uk (including www.city.ac.uk/mathematics but *not* the similar top page) are corrupted. Side menus contain (mostly) invisible items, and various features such as highlighting boxes and colour schemes also vanish. The pages appear correctly in Firefox 2, and other browsers.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. visit www.city.ac.uk/mathematics
2.
3.
The problem is still present in RC1, and relates to incorrect loading of style files. The page contains the following two lines - if the first <link> line is deleted then everything works fine. The file city2col.css @import's another css file, and it is this which fails to load if the first line is left in. This is not a problem in FF2 or other browsers.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://www.city.ac.uk/global/css/city2col.css" type="text/css" media="sc#82;een,projection" />

<style type="text/css" media="screen,projection">
@import 'http://www.city.ac.uk/global/css/city2col.css';
/* Viewed in all but NS4 or earlier (PC/MAC), IE4 or earlier (PC), all IE (MACs only) */
</style>


city.ac.uk have now redesigned their site so that the issue does not arise (although that does not resolve the underlying problem). However, visiting the sites listed no longer demonstrates a problem.
Anton, can you attach a simple testcase that demonstrates the bug?

Ah, yes.  The two stylesheets pointing to the same uri with the first disabled thing.  This got fixed for Firefox 3.1.
