I'm pretty new at php just learning. I'm working on a basic little blog, for a project and having problems with my css not showing up when i put my php into my xhtml. Can anyone explain to me why this might be happening here's my code.



<?php
require('php/db_connect.php');

$sql = "SELECT id, title, date, content FROM jchamb_blog ORDER BY date DESC LIMIT 3 ";
$result = mysql_query($sql);

?>

Because you spelled Hamburger wrong. :rolleyes:

Everything looks a-ok, have you been able to connect to the database ok?

What exactly is happening when you run this script?

Ha thanks for catching that.

I found the problem, which i should have thought to check much sooner.
The permissions were messed up on the server and it wasn't allowing my css file to be read.

Thanks for taking a time to look at it though I really appreciate it.

No problem, good luck in the future.
