I am a government contractor. I need to access government web sites. One of the sites is a Army site. When I try to access it it comes up with an error. Specifically, this site makes extensive use of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) to control content layout. For whatever reason my firefox will not read it.

Can you help???

Most modern web pages including this forum use css. Firefox should have no problem with that.

I suggest you ask your employers or the Army's IT department for help.

Hi Vince, if you aren't able to get tech support from the site itself, you can use Firefox's Network Monitor, one of the developer tools, to look for errors in loading of the external style sheets.

This article provides some information about this tool: https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Tools/Network_Monitor

If you see a style sheet that isn't loading, you can right-click that row and choose open in a new tab. Then if there is, for example, a secure certificate error, it should be easier to investigate the issue.
