CSS body tag won't work

1

Hi,

i am loading html text from an XML file and a CSS style sheet in flash. For some reason the body and most other CSS tag in the stylesheet are not working. other tags that are working in the same style sheet are a and a:hover . Any clues why this is happening?

CSS file extract:

body, td, li {
font-family: “Century Gothic”, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 5px;
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color: #000000;
}
p {
font-family: “Century Gothic”, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 5px;
color: #FF0000;
background-color: #000000;
}
.Title {
font-family: “Century Gothic”, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color: #000000;
}
a {
font-family: “Century Gothic”, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color: #000000;
text-decoration: underline;
padding: 0px;
}
a:hover {
font-family: “Century Gothic”, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #FF0000;
background-color: #000000;
text-decoration: underline;
padding: 0px;
}

any help is appreciated.

thanks
