Issue in using cascading style sheet(CSS) in coldfusion

[Thirumaniselvan]

I have installed coldfusion in my machine recently. The thing is that my cfm files are not recognising the classes of the linked style sheets though I have given the correct path of the location of css file. Also it couldn't recognise <img src=""> tag to display an image.
Please help me out to solve this issue.

> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" />

And is this path correct for the CSS file, relative to the URL in the
address bar of the browser?

The answer is to lose the end-slash from the link. Minor as it seems, that will fix the issue, as long as the href is correct

CFM files are disinteresting in HTML, CSS classes and links and that sort
of carry-on. It's all just "noise" to CF. So your CFM template cannot, in
and off itself, cause problems with your CSS stuff.

What you need to do is to look at the generated HTML and see what you're
doing wrong. I imagine you've got the URLs wrong. Bear in mind that LINK
URLs are indeed URLs, and if you're using relative ones, they should be
relative to the URL of the request, and have no bearing on the file
location of the CFM file they are represented in. This is a common mistake
nebies make.

Does this work if you make it an HTML page?
Also, are you doing this on your live site or on your dev site (ie local computer)?
1 mistake I've seen that is so obvious sometimes it gets overlooked, is that you need to upload your stylesheets etc to the production server and then make sure that the path is still correct in your cfm file. Do a view source to see what the actual path to your stylesheet is as far as the site is concerned. It may have something like "c:\mysite\style.css" meaning it is looking for it on YOUR computer.
