I am having an issue with colors and fonts disappearing. Yesterday I created a new web page and corresponding CSS file. Today when I opened it up in CoffeeCup and previewed it, none of the fonts or colors specified in my CSS file are showing up on my page.
What could be causing this issue? How can it be solved? Everything showed up yesterday, so I don't think it's a CSS problem. I'm at my wit's end trying to figure out what's causing this. It's been happening intermittently for over a week.

I preview in both Firefox and IE. I would post a link to my site, but I uploaded to my host space yesterday and everything looks as it should (this is for a class in my master's program). However, when I preview in Firefox and IE today, the colors and fonts are not rendered.

Upload it to a temp folder or use S-Drive and share the link. We need to see it online to offer some suggestions.

The issue here is you have the css file in the root folder. It needs to be in a folder called css.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/dq6style.css" />

I'm sorry, I don't understand. is the link you have listed how mine should look? If so, that's what I had in the file. I'm still unsure of how to resolve the issue. Also, the CSS file is in a folder called CSS on my computer.

In the zip file there was no css folder. I created a css folder, move the css file into it and previewed it. That screenshot is what I see. Looks correct to me.

That is so strange, then. When I previewed the page in both Firefox and IE, there are no colors or fonts. Everything's just black and white. How can this be resolved?

You would need to correct the code that you are using. If you do not have a CSS file you need to remove the css/ from css/style.css
If you do not point to the correct location then the browser does not know where to look.
Also to answer your question from your support ticket. That is why it is considered a coding issue.
