Just installed Wordpress. CSS didn't work in Firefox although it rendered properly under IE.
I've temporarily fixed it by modifying the header to remove the XHTML declarations (deleted the DTD and changed <html… > to <html>). Seems to work for now. Will need to investigate what the problem is.

Written by Charles Darke at 10:21pm, 7 September 2006.I fixed the WordPress display problem. My solution was to take out the following line in httpd.conf:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .css
and instead include it in the .htaccess in my css directory.
Most of the time I expect not to use PHP for CSS and so I will include a .htaccess file where necessary.
To be fair, it's not a WordPress problem, but more of a Apache config or Firefox problem. However, I don't see the real need to use xhtml for a blog package. Also, I think the way Firefox treats css files without the text/css mimetype could be relaxed (as IE does).

Unfortunately, while IE happily accepts css files, Firefox refuses to render the css under xhtml when it's not delivered as type text/css.
