ah. It's the browsers default black text on black background and sas to be
selected to be seen. Adding to URL field.

The linked stylesheet <link rel=stylesheet type="text/css" href="/js/style.css"> 
doesn't seem to take effect - text isn't formatted.
When trying to browse the stylesheet i was prompted to download it instead.

Comment 5

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

From page info:

Render mode: Standards compliance mode

And when getting the stylesheet:

Length: 1,629 [application/x-pointplus]

See http://mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.0/#devel -- in standards mode we do not
load stylesheets served with incorrect mime types, as this one is.

Over to evangelism; the server needs to be configured correctly.

this is now a redirect to a 404, whose text looks fine :-)

actually, the whole site seems to redirect to:
http://harrypotter.warnerbros.com/main/homepage/home.html

which works fine in mozilla.
