Gif screenshot of mozilla - link shown is blue, should be grey. mouse over is purple,should be orange.
The following html will display a grey link which on mouse over will turn
orange. if the same style sheet is linked instead of inline then the link
appears blue and the mouse-over link uses a different font
(linked using : <LINK REL=stylesheet HREF="test.css" TYPE="text/css">)
The linked style sheet works fine on Netscape & IE
<html>
<head>
<title>test</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
A:link,A:visited {font-family:sans-serif;text-decoration:underline;
color:#999999;}
A:hover,A:active {font-family:sans-serif;text-decoration:underline;
color:#FF6600;}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" leftmargin=0 topmargin=0>
<a href="http://www.mozilla.org">Browsers</a>
</body>
</html>
seems to work for me? what build are you using. Also could you attach the source to the two pages you use for the linked version?? (If build is more than a few weeks old, try a new build first, ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/ )

remove the following from test.css <style type="text/css"> <!-- --> </style> a linked stylesheet should not have those definitions. without those lines it works correctly in mozilla. i would say this is a wont fix bug.

It may be fair to ignore this aspect, since I did suspect that they definition of the css file was suspect - however, where should this lie with regards to compatibility with NS4 and IE? The offending code snippet was taken from a 10,000 users intranet project. While we will of course rectify the style sheet file, this aspect remains an incompatibility (then again, is it simply an improvement in the name of progress?)
Changing component to Style System and marking INVALID. The <style> and </style> should not be in an external CSS file and should cause the rule following them to be ignored since they are part of the selector for that rule. The <!-- and --> are valid there (but unnecessary). I think changes like this need to be made for progress - it won't hurt any browsers if people remove HTML markup from their external CSS, and it's easy to do. I also don't think it's that common.
