are there some limitations to the css that can be used in an externally loaded style sheet and externally loaded textfile? I’m using the kirupa tutorials: [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/cssfile.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/cssfile.htm) and I followed the first one first.

This is my style sheet:  
.contenthead {  
font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;  
font-size: 18px;  
font-weight: bold;  
color: 663300;  
margin-left: 10px;  
margin-top: 25px;  
width: auto;  
}  
.contentmain {  
font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;  
font-size: 10px;  
color: #663300;  
margin-left: 10px;  
width: 415px;  
text-align: justify;  
}  
.contentminihead {

```
font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-weight:bold;
font-size: 11px;
color: #663300;
margin-left: 10px;
width: 415px;
text-align: justify;

```

}

The “width” property doesnt seem to make a difference, or text-align. font-family and size and color seem to render ok, though.

Here’s the page itself:

Anyone know what to do?
