I am having trouble setting up an external style sheet. When I do the following:

1. Choose New Page or Web from File menu.
2. In the New from Template section of the Task pane, click Page Templates.

The dialog box has a General Tab and a Frames tab but no Style Sheets tab.

What do I do?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Linda,
If I were you I'd write stylesheets outside of FP. You can download TopStyle
www.bradsoft.com there's a free version (which might be all you need) and a
paid for pro version. To my mind FP has never really cracked stylesheets -
better to use the right tool for the job.

Agree on using a 3rd party CSS editor

But the user should also check Tools Page Options Compatibility/Authoring to make sure CSS is enabled

Thanks. I'm still having a problem applying the style sheet to my web
site. I only want to define simple styles like the headings. I defined
h1 in my CSS style sheet and linked the style sheet to my (already
developed) web site. The heading 1 style did not change in the web
page.

Thanks for your help.

Linda,

Are these pages online? Can we view them to see if there's an error?\
 
Remember that in each page of your web where you want to reference your
stylesheet you must include the line
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="yourstylesheet.css">
between the <head> </head> fields.
Hope this helps.
Larry
