The rendering of CSS is altered when being processed by IIS

It appears that this issue is not specific to any browser and generally affects styling in various webkit/gecko/mozilla styles.

For instance, when I create a website mockup and implement a style like:

element.class {
    border-radius: 5px; 
    -moz-border-radius: 5px; 
    -webkit-border-radius: 5px; 
    border: 1px solid #800000;
}

or

element:last-child {
    ....
}

When I open the file by double-clicking on it, the style displays as expected. However, when I apply the style to a live site hosted on IIS7, it seems to be ignored. I've checked the IIS configuration of the site but couldn't find a reason for this issue.

I would greatly appreciate any help with resolving this problem.

Thank you!

Answer №1

It is unlikely that the issue stems from the web server. Here are a couple of troubleshooting steps you can take:

  1. Have you verified if the CSS file is being loaded correctly? Use your browser's developer tools to check the loaded resources.
  2. Could it be that a cached CSS file is being used instead? Inspect the loaded CSS in the developer tools to ensure your CSS rule is included.
  3. Is there a chance that another CSS rule on the live site has higher specificity and is overriding yours? You can typically identify this in the developer tools, with the overwritten CSS rule appearing with a strike-through or similar indication.
